CESSNOCK CURTAIN (1) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (29.81) in a Grade 4/5 at Gosford latest but did run well two back when in the frame. This looks easier and expected to bounce back. HOT TO STOP (3) filled a minor placing two back then scored his maiden win (30.19) at this track over 515m last time. Must include in calculations. CLOSING MODEL (2) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on her fast win a few runs back, getting around this track over 400m in 22.81. Has the ability and looks a key chance. REBORN SCARLETT (8) is a last-start placegetter here at this trip - worth considering.

Good performance to post a big 6 lengths win at this track over 515m (30.19) beating Hunterview Jack in Mix on August 22. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 515m at this track. That followed a win two back in 23.52 beating Botox Chevy over 400m at this track. Minor place prospects only.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4.5 lengths second (30.06) over 515m at this track. Top-three hope with the right run.

Good effort to win last start by 1.75 lengths over 515m at this track in a handy (30.28), beating Jamati Girl. Will find this a bit tougher, looking to others this time.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished third at this track latest but prior to that recorded a speedy 22.83 over 400m finishing third at this track. Should be in this for a long way.
