Agatha (9)
2.50
Welcome to Rosehill for the Grant Burge, a sharp 1100m sprint for the fillies and mares under Benchmark 78 conditions. The track is rated a Good 4 under fine skies, and punters have been busy sizing up a competitive field. Looking at the win market order, Agatha holds sway at the top of betting, closely followed by Swordplay, Show Business, Regimental Colours, She's My Ex, Flightcrew, and Detain rounding out the line-up for this late afternoon dash at 5:25 pm AEDT.
The yarn behind the market fancies reveals some fascinating form lines. Agatha leads the charge in the betting and brings strong credentials, having hit the line forcefully when finishing third over this exact track and trip on a soft deck last start, complemented by a similar placing at Warwick Farm. Meanwhile, Swordplay represents Bjorn Baker and jumps from barrier seven with Amber Riddell steering. This runner is first-up after a twenty-three-week break, boasting a proven fresh record and two sharp barrier trial warm-ups, though an outer barrier means gate speed will be needed early. Show Business is another drawing attention with Zac Lloyd taking the reins for Matthew Smith, coming off a late-rallying fifth at Warwick Farm following a long break that suggests fitness is building nicely.

First-up (23-weeks). Just the one run last prep. Proven fresh performer while warmed up with two impressive trials. Outer barrier but has good gate speed. Betting.
ILB
Fresh today after a break. Jumped at $5.00 and didn't find the line when 8th last time at Eagle Farm. Should muster plenty of early toe. Strong prospects in this race.
RP
Was eighth of 11, beaten just over 5l, over 5f at Eagle Farm (handicap) five months ago; returns from a layoff here; big player with Amber Riddell booked and she knows how to get the job done.
RSIS
Back after a break. Started at 4/1 and folded up in the straight when 8th last start at Eagle Farm. Displays good tactical pace. Has won multiple trials. Rates as one of the key chances.

Weakened to finish 7th last start at Warwick Farm but up against a less challenging field. Must respect.
RP
Record shows she knows where the winning post is (wins-runs career record of 3-10); respectable effort in defeat (beaten just under 3l) at Warwick Farm over 6f (handicap) last week; likely to be a threat.

Struggled with the pace when 7th last time at Warwick Farm but facing less formidable opponents. One of the punters top hopes.

Back after a spell. Brave effort to win narrowly by a nose last run at Muswellbrook and strong performer at this trip in the past. Up against tougher competition. Expect a forward showing.
RP
Attempts to land a hat-trick and career wins-runs record of 4-10; landed a narrow success in a handicap (Muswellbrook) five months ago; the trainer continues to be among winners recently; returns from a break here; others more appealing despite the last time out success.
RSIS
Resuming. Fought on well to win a tight contest last start at Muswellbrook and will be well suited at the trip. Rising in class. Has definite claims.
