Verdict

MADAME FIOCCA (6) dropped down to country class and scored a narrow win over 5 ½f at Goulburn 15 days ago. She drops 4lbs and has the scope to measure up in this class as well. Each way. NOTHING BUT NET (9) ran well first-up, and then raced on the pace before fading to sixth over 6f at Gosford 16 days ago. He will be better suited to the shorter trips for now and can bounce straight back into the money here. PEWTER PEARL (7) is a promising filly who comes off a last-start fourth, less than a length from the winner over 5f at Moruya nearly 2 weeks ago. She drops 6lbs, and can figure in the top 3 this time, especially after drawing in the pole position again. SONG FOR ROSIE (8) peaked on her run late at Wyong a fortnight ago, and was runner-up before that when resuming at Taree. She will be peaking third up, and with 3lbs less to carry this time, she is one to watch. CENTURY SONG (1) dropped down to country class last start and bolted in to score by 3 lengths. Stick with him.
