Verdict

Star Northern Rivers sprinter MY MUM'S TOYBOY (1) returned from a six-month spell with a devastating win over 5f at Port Macquarie last start despite a crushing 62kgs. Carries the same weight today and won't find this any harder. The winner of six from nine at Grafton and is a huge chance to make it seven. THE WOLF (5) looks hardest to beat after chasing home My Mum's Toyboy at Port Macquarie three weeks ago. That followed an eight-week let-up so he strips fitter and gets a 4.5kgs weight swing. Should make it interesting. WHAT A RUSH (8) led but weakened to finish fourth in that Port Macquarie sprint. Draws a lot better today and should be in contention for a long way. COUNT NICHOLAS (13) wasn't beaten far over 6f at the Gold Coast last start. In the money at nine of 14 over today's journey. A wide gate is the main concern. TARTAGLIA (11) can improve third-up on a firmer surface.
