AAP

Jumped to the front and simply too good taking out the Plate (C1) at Griffith. Maps well. Very well placed for a repeat.

ILB

Controlled the pace to win by 6L last run at Griffith and will try to take advantage of the alley. Should jump out and bowl along. Strong bet.

Produced a bright display to win by 6l last month upped to this trip at Griffith in a conditions race; difficult to oppose.

RSIS

Made all when winning by 6L last start at Griffith and can find a nice position from the draw. Should race on the pace. Should take a lot of beating.

AAP

Recaptured winning form with a strong victory at Wagga. Switching to 1800m. This will test his credentials.

ILB

Charged home to win last start here and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Slim possibilty.

Returned to winning ways over 1m2f at Wagga (handicap) when Miss Defy and Mayfair Hotel were behind him 14 days ago; a likely player.

RSIS

Dashed home to win last time around here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races.

AAP

On a short back-up. Stationed midfield and never landed a blow at Canberra 26 Sep. Coming back in distance. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. Started at $10.00 and gave away some ground when 5th last run at Canberra. Has the potential to improve sharply. Will not be far away.

Was fifth of eight, beaten 10l, over 1m2f at Canberra (handicap) a week ago; makes limited appeal.

RSIS

On a quick back up. Was 9/1 and couldn't stay in touch when 5th last time at Canberra. Should improve. Represents value in this race.

AAP

Gallant display at Wagga. Drops to shorter trip. One for multiples.

ILB

Backing up quickly. Started at $4.40 and ordinary performance when 4th last run at Dubbo but gets the perfect barrier. Coming back in trip.

Beaten just over 5l in fourth over 1m3f at Dubbo (handicap) yesterday; poses a threat as has bits and pieces of decent form; held an entry at Dubbo Friday.

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Odds of 10/3 and just average when 4th last run at Dubbo but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Down in distance.

AAP

Ordinary performance in small field at Leeton. Well into preparation now, can fill the minors here.

ILB

Was $2.45 and made some ground when 4th last start at Leeton. Quayde Krogh and Peter Clancy are a proven combination. Watch the betting.

Likes this combination of C&D; not disgraced when fourth over 1m at Leeton (handicap) last month; others more likely.

RSIS

Started 6/4 and showed some merit late when 4th last time at Leeton. Jockey Quayde Krogh is currently in strong form for this stable. Shows good closing pace.

On a short back-up. Failed to threaten at Dubbo. Can make amends here.

ILB

Backs up quickly. Jumped at $13.00 and didn't threaten when 9th last time at Dubbo but returns to a longer distance.

RSIS

On a quick turnaround. Odds of 12/1 and didn't threaten when 9th last time at Dubbo but stepping back up in distance.

Winless since 29 Sep 2025. Kept grinding away for the minors at Wagga. Shapes as a rough place prospect.

ILB

Outgunned at the finish when 3rd beaten by 2 3/4L last start here and displaying improvement over the past few runs.

RSIS

Was found wanting late when 3rd last run at this venue and getting better in recent performances.

Odds correct as at Sat 3 Oct, 2:40 pm AEST. Odds can change.
