Verdict

CZECH ME (3) had plenty of hype on debut and almost lived up to it, before missing in a disappointing effort at Canterbury most recently. Back to country level now and draws inside for Loy. Gets a favourable set-up today and can show what he's capable of. DE RAZILLY (4) resumes after a long absence but showed genuine ability in two Sapphire Coast runs, especially her debut second. Should be fitter for a recent Goulburn trial and she can return on a positive note. AERIALIZE (7) is third-up here and is building nicely. Can't be discounted. HIT THE NOS (5) faded out of his only trial but was in the firing line early. That was back in May though so he'll be a stronger gelding now. JVO's booking creates interest.

3	Drops back from mid-week grade after finishing second last at Canterbury, beaten five and a half lengths, where he was hampered near the 1 ½f and still worked home evenly. His debut at Hawkesbury was much stronger, leading and being caught late as a well-supported favourite. Outclassed last start but was impressive on debut, and that form stacks up. 1st Pick 3 Czech Me Jockey: Brodie Loy Trainer: Luke Pepper J: Brodie Loy T: Luke Pepper	225	-	-	-	90%

11	Debuts for a leading local stable and arrives off a solid second in a Canberra trial over 4 ½f two weeks ago, beaten less than a length. Drawn out, but the trial was superb and that form has already produced a winner. 2nd Pick 11 Lady Mariana Jockey: Non Runner Trainer: Keith Dryden & Libby Snowden J: Non Runner T: Keith Dryden & Libby Snowden	65	-	-	-	1%	Scratched

4	Returns from a lengthy spell after showing enough in two Sapphire Coast runs to rate highly here. She was beaten half a length on debut on soft ground, then sixth behind Platinum Ridge after racing wide throughout over 6f. Spent a while off the scene but she'll be fitter for a recent trial. 3rd Pick 4 De Razilly Jockey: Coriah Keatings Trainer: Nick Olive J: Coriah Keatings T: Nick Olive	111	-	-	-	8%
