Verdict

INTO BROOKLYN (2) keeps improving as she gets deeper into the campaign and will relish the 7lbs claim today from the low draw. Was three weeks between runs when she peaked late for a solid second over this trip at Wyong. Doesn't have to improve much to take this out. TENNESSEE DOLLY (8) lightly raced filly who appreciated the class drop first-up with a determined Maiden win over 5 ½f at Goulburn. Doesn't get the same map favours today but will be savaging the line late. NULLARBOR JANE (3) fast filly who knocked up late after taking control early before finishing third over 5f at Kembla Grange first-up. Trip suits with Grima's claim and is expected to go close. TIDES TURNING (5) well deserved win at the big odds when she cleared out for a game win over 5f here at latest. Will hold a forward position and don't dismiss with the extra weight.
