Verdict

WHO LOVES A HARLEY (8) improving gelding ready to peak fourth up. Gripped on late with the 130lbs with a sound second over 5 ?f at this track. Should relish the extra ground and not without top three claims. INSAIN CHAOS (6) slashing return first-up, then shuffled back from the inside draw with a below-par seventh over 6f at Lismore in A Super Maiden. Finds an easier race and placed at the trip from a wide draw on August 1. Leading contender. MISS FIC (12) improved at her second career start with a fast finishing third over 5 ?f at this track on the soft (6) surface. Looking for this trip and further now and gets her chance from the rails draw. DEEP AFFECTION (11) first up she raced keenly in the early and middle stages with a tiring last over 6f at this track. Blinkers come off and gets weight relief from the awkward gate. Place only.
