AAP

Sent forward and stuck to the task bravely in the Hcp (C1) at Narromine. Lone victory was over this trip. Major player here.

ILB

Narrowly denied a win last start at Narromine. Will be motoring home late. Definitely worth considering.

Went down by a neck over 6f at Narromine (handicap) last month; interesting if reproducing most recent effort.

RSIS

Missed by a narrow margin last start at Narromine. Displays good finishing pace. Strong prospects.

Comments

AAP

First-up (29-weeks). In the minors at Gilgandra first-up last campaign. Drawn to effect. Makes strong appeal fresh in this affair.

ILB

First up and finished 2nd first up last preparation at Gilgandra. Will be positive in the run early. Jockey Clayton Gallagher and trainer Brett Robb are consistently competitive together. Good prospects.

She meets the required standard ability wise; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Warren (beaten just under 5l) over 6f (handicap) in March; back from an absence here; strong contender as shown she can win fairly recently.

RSIS

Resuming and claimed a spot in the top three when 2nd resuming last preparation at Gilgandra. Interesting to see the tongue strap go on for the first time. Can measure up against these.

AAP

Sent forward and stuck to the task bravely in rain affected going in the Hcp (C1) at Dubbo. Only win to date was this distance. Fit from racing, among the dangers again.

ILB

Racing on a quick back up. Just shy of the win last time at Dubbo and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Expecting to settle positively. Place claims.

Had two of these rivals behind her over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) when a close second last week; achieved only a sole win.

RSIS

Backing up quickly for this race. Competed in a tight contest last run at Dubbo and getting better in recent performances. Should jump out and bowl along.

AAP

Finished within striking distance Hcp (C1) at Dubbo for new trainer. Lands in a suitable contest.

ILB

Backs up quickly. Was $9.00 and improved late to finish 4th last run at Dubbo and has a good draw. Holds a major chance.

Has largely been consistent of late; useful in this grade; not beaten too far (just over 1l) over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) last week on debut for this trainer; assuming she steps up from most recent effort then one to take seriously.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Was 8/1 and made up ground when 4th last time at Dubbo and gets a favourable stall. Should go well.

Handy but gave away tamely at Dubbo off extended spell. Better conditioned. Went close only other go this course and trip. Key player if things pan out.

ILB

Started at $41.00 and tailed off to finish 10th last run at Dubbo but drops back to a suitable grade. Likely to be well placed early. Prefer in an easier race.

Beaten 8l last month at Dubbo in a conditions race; others are preferred as has a lot on her plate here.

RSIS

Started at 40/1 and tailed off to finish 10th last run at Dubbo but back in an easier grade. Should come to hand quickly. Will appreciate the drop in weight.

Secured third in a staggered finish at Come By Chance. First time around Forbes. Back from picnics.

ILB

Competitive effort when 3rd last start at Come By Chance and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Interesting gear change of blinkers off first time. Will need everything to go right.

Not disgraced when third of five at Come By Chance over 6f (handicap) two weeks ago; others are preferred.

RSIS

Came in 3rd last time at Come By Chance and drawn well. Interesting to see the blinkers go off for the first time.

AAP

Well back and never sighted at Dubbo off long break as an odds drifter. Has an adverse draw. First time around Forbes. Others more persuasive.

ILB

On a quick back up. Weakened under pressure when 12th last start at Dubbo on a heavy surface. Should bounce back. Tongue tie go off for the first time. Definite claims for punters.

Last of 12 over 5f at Dubbo (handicap) behind two of these last Friday; has shown glimpses of ability recently and looks interesting.

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Didn't find the line when 12th last time at Dubbo. Expected to rebound. Interesting gear change of tongue strap off first time. Win will not surprise.

On pace but found little at the business end at Dubbo over longer test. Seems to prefer it dry. Switching to 1100m. Super fit from racing, can make his presence felt.

Comments

AAP

Let-up (49-days). Not disgraced at Cobar second-up at $8. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

Back from a let up. Started $10.00 and tailed off when 7th last time at Cobar. Take on trust.

Solid run when seventh at Cobar 49 days ago in a conditions race; a lot on her plate here and hard enough to fancy.

RSIS

Freshened up. Was 9/1 and looked flat when 7th last start at Cobar.

Odds correct as at Sat 10 Oct, 5:20 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
