Verdict

LADY OLENNA (14) got the dream run along the inside second-up when a plugging fifth over 5f at this track. Ready for the 6f now and can get cover from the sticky draw. Rates highly and is right in the mix. JOISELLE (8) handy mare who dropped back in trip when a slashing third over 5f at this track. Up to her right trip and ticks plenty of boxes with the blinkers going on. Go close. TARTAGLIA (1) kept fresh for this. Sent north when he was slow into stride for a disappointing ninth over 6f at Eagle Farm in BM70 class. Will relish the claim and assess on the good win at Taree. COUGARS (10) proven at this level but he can't draw a decent gate. Eye catching return over the 5f at this track when sixth in a solid rating contest. This is his pet trip and sure to be thereabouts. SHE WITHIN (20) frustrating mare kept up to the mark with a trial win over 4f at Goulburn. Worthy contender if she gains a start.
