Verdict

O CARA MIA (14) raced up on the speed and tried hard in the run home but was swamped at the end of 1600m at Warwick Farm last start. Down in class and is looking for this sort of trip now after three runs back from a spell. Big chance to make amends. DE LOUVIERE (19) opened this prep with a couple of nice runs then didn't finish off as hoped over 1900m at Canterbury last time out. Given a bit of time to get over that run and back at the provincials is worth another chance. YABBY PUMP (6) has been just behind the placings at his last couple. Been up for a while now but at this level continues to be competitive. Must go in the numbers. SUNSOURCE (4) was in the market last start over 1900m but pulled up lame a long way behind the leading pack. Went close the run prior in town. Can bounce back. CUESTA (10) is new to this trip but rarely runs a bad race so should give backers a sight.

Most recently 5th of 12 at Canterbury Bm64 on January 16 over 1900m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Allegro Miss with 59kg at $8. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at Gosford Mdn-Sw December 31 over 1600m defeating Marebello carrying 59kg at $2.40. Lightly raced gelding with plenty of scope for improvement.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 5th of 7 at Beaumont (Newcastle) Prov Mdn-Sw on December 13 over 1350m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Satin's Legacy carrying 57.5kg at $5.50. Second-up won by 0.5 len at Kembla Grange Super Mdn-Sw January 3 over 1600m defeating The Confidante carrying 57.5kg at $16. Fitter again but this is a tough assignment.

Last start raced behind the speed prior to fading second last of 10 at Warwick Farm Mares Bm72 on January 7 over 1600m, 2 len behind Heaven Bound with 54.5kg at $13. The start before that 2nd in a small field at Canterbury F&M Bm72 on December 19 over 1550m, 0.8 len behind Miss Hades carrying 54kg at $5.50. Needs this trip now and should be cherry ripe at the fourth run back.
