Verdict

Hard race with so many resuming. COOL BLAZE (6) with the run under her belt gets the verdict. Tracked the pace then let down nicely to be beaten just half a length when fresh from a 20-week spell over this course and distance last start. Maps beautifully from the good gate and she should be there at the business end again. INDECISIVE (1) worked home well to grab third when lining up for the first time in 15 months over this distance at Kembla on 9 May. The winner of that race subsequently won a Rosehill Midway. Big chance with that comeback run out of the way. The speedy EAGERLY AWAITS (8) returns from a 262-day day-off. Opened last prep with a commanding win at Moruya. Must be respected. AT HER MERCY (5) last raced on 5 February. Beaten a whisker when fresh last prep at Wagga. Trialling in great style and looks ready for a positive return. YES SIREE (3) is a lightly raced four-year-old who last appeared when runner-up over 6 ¾f here four months ago. In the mix.
