Verdict

TRANSACTIONS (6) did a good job to finish third in a similar race to this two back at Mudgee then found 5f at the Sapphire Coast too slick last start. Better placed today back up in trip with the blinkers off. Ready to return to winning form. YAKAMOZ (13) was lining up for only the fourth time when she recorded a dogged maiden win over this trip at Dubbo a fortnight ago. Progressive type who gets her chance to repeat the effort with the help of an ideal draw. JOLLY GOOD FELLOW (3) has failed to land a glove in four runs this prep but today's set-up looks the most appealing of the campaign. A wide gate doesn't help but he is capable of turning things around. BOUNDING BON (1) drops in class and steps up to a more suitable distance on a seven-day turnaround. One of the better hopes. MISS EMMA (9) has been freshened up and can fill a top four spot without surprising.
