Verdict

LOS PADRES (2) opened this campaign with a couple of placings at the provincials then didn't have much luck at Kembla last time so it might be best to ignore that result. Has his share of weight but in this company he looks an outstanding chance. CHRISTMAS STAR (6) showed pace but weakened when resuming over 1200m at Queanbeyan recently. Raced over this course and distance on four consecutive occasions last prep for two wins and two placings. Hard to ignore those stats. STARLIGHT GIRL (4) returned to form last start in an open sprint over today's journey at Canberra. Can go on with it now. SELHURST PARK (8) doesn't win often enough but with the light weight is worth including in exotics. AEGIPAN (5) has been safely held in better races than this of late. Nicely in on 55kgs and this is more his level.

Second-up. First-up after six months ran second last in a small field in a Bm74 at Queanbeyan on October 26 over 1200m, slow going 4.5 len behind Soul Lady carrying 57kg at $3.30. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 in a Cl2 Bm62 at Wagga on December 9 over 1200m, 0.8 len behind Heavenly Kiss with 58kg at $9. Strips fitter and expected to feature.

Last start 9th of 14 in a Bm64 at Kembla Grange on October 24 over 1200m, 5 len behind Miss Emma with 59kg at $19. Before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 in a Bm64 at Illawarra Grange on October 1 over 1150m, neck behind Centimetre carrying 59kg at $8. Better placed today and is one of the leading chances.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation second of 14 at this track Bm58 June 7 over 1405m, soft track; a long neck behind Ciao Bella Mia with 59kg at $8.50.

Returns from a 34-day let-up. At the latest run from last on the turn 5th of 7 in a Open Bm89 at Moruya on October 2 over 1010m, slow going 4 len behind One Destiny carrying 52kg at $31. The start before that won by a neck in a Ctry Bm58 at Moruya on August 28 over 1210m defeating Lady Got Bling with 55.5kg at $11. Capable enough on his day and is expected to run well.
