Verdict

MOON ZONE (5) had no trouble stepping up to a BM58 last start, coming from well back on the bend to score over 7f at Dubbo. Comes back in trip but a hot tempo will suit her racing pattern. Getting up in the weights but a third straight win is not out of reach. DEEBO (1) hasn't won for over a year but the recent efforts have been encouraging. Flew home to grab second over 6f two back then missed the kick and passed a few over 7f at Tamworth last time. One to watch for in the concluding stages. GOLD SMILES (13) was on a three-day back-up when an eye-catching fourth over 7f at Gunnedah recently. Finds it hard to win but looks a nice each-way option down in the weights. On-pacer HIT SONG (7) was brave in defeat last time out over 7f at Gunnedah. Just needs luck crossing from a wide alley to be competitive again. SIDENAY (6) is well served by the claim and should be close to his peak at the third run back.
