Verdict

BILLABONG (1) is back from a 27-week spell for Gai and Adrian. Led and just failed to hold on at her first race start over this distance at Kembla then pulled up lame at Hawkesbury and was turned out. Two recent trials will have her ready for a positive return. DINGLE GREY (2) has not raced since starting favourite over this distance at Port Macquarie in October and finishing an eye-catching second. Placed in a trial at Hawkesbury on 24 February. Will be putting in the big strides late. REIGN 'EM IN (5) is a first starter by Time To Reign who is a half-sister to two stakes winners. Trial form suggests she has enough talent to test this field. Locally trained NOT ASKING (3) placed in a Beaumont trial on 24 March and should give a good account on debut.
