Verdict

MACAROON (3) well bred mare who scored a barnstorming Maiden win at her second race start over 6 ½f at this track. Maps well again and should be even stronger over this trip. Leading contender. DUNDEEL FLYER (2) went out a winner at Goulburn over the 1m last May. Resumed with a fast finishing second over 6f at Cootamundra. Comes to hand quickly and expected to go on with it this prep. ARGYLE LAIRD (6) trained locally and got shuffled back from the rails draw with a struggling eighth over 6 ½f at this track. Leading apprentice hops aboard and must be kept safe. MEMPHIS TENNESSEE (8) will strip fitter third-up and could add some value.
