RACE THREE
With his preferred pattern out in front and setting the speed, MAYWYNS BEST (1) looks to have found the right conditions for a Saturday night success. He took them all the way from gate 4 here 3 starts back and followed that with a tidy effort when retreating from gate 6. Pouncing on the poles here and with limited pressure, he might just be able to pinch this.
HARD TO HEAR (3) has been in great form and lines up here in search of a hat-trick after wins at the middle distance and sprint trip. Eased back form gate 6 last start in a qualifier, he powered home to arrive for a smart win. Settling in a handy spot, look for him making the closing play.
HES OKEY DOKEY (8) steps out in Qld for the 1st time, joining the Jack Butler stable. Down the line last start at Menangle, he can secure a cosy run in transit here and be probing the openings.
JUST DEAL IT (2) didn’t have much luck last start when eased back from gate 6, yet when making a late challenge was attacking the line strongly. A passing lane winner 3 starts back, she can be in the mix.
