Verdict

ST FAITH'S (5) is a lightly raced filly back from a 37-week spell. Debuted last prep with a placing at Muswellbrook then wasn't disgraced in the Listed Woodlands Stakes over 5 ½f at the only other run. Trialling well and should have the edge over today's rivals. PROCLIVITY (1) returns from a 229-day break for a second campaign. Placed on debut at Newcastle then struggled to make an impact before being turned out. All four runs have been on wet tracks which is the query, but if he doesn't mind the firmer track he's in with a chance. DIVA ROUGE (3) last appeared when midfield over 5f here on 14 July. Finished third on debut at Taree at the only other run. Went well in a recent trial and looks ready to run well. EQUITABLE (7) has not raced since finishing well back over this course and distance in August when fresh from a ten-month break. See what the market has to say. STRAIGHT SOUTH (11) raced wide so forgive his last start flop. Can bounce back.
