Verdict

GAIL JEANETTE (11) is back from an 18-week spell. Only raced once last prep for a new stable and failed after meeting with strong backing. Tackled a couple of stakes races as a juvenile so she must show connections something at home. Betting the key but suspect if forward enough she can win this. SIGSALY (9) has been kept fresh since a promising return over this trip at Scone a month ago. Nicely drawn and gets in with the same weight after the claim. Will race handy and give backers a great sight. CAPSITY (10) has found the line well without threatening in her two runs this prep. Not drawn the best but with added fitness she should be good enough to feature in the finish. MATILDA NO MORE (8) is back from a 227-day break for a second prep. Flew home to grab second on debut over 5 ½f at this track. May find this a fraction short but is one to watch for late in the piece. IMASTATEMENT (6) resumes. Missed by a whisker first-up last prep over this journey. Sure to give a good account.
