Verdict

EMALYN (7) has the most attractive current form, winning first-up at Newcastle before a sound second there when a dominant odds-on favourite. The lost gear late adds some context to that defeat, and she is fitter third-up with a useful claiming rider record. Ticks plenty of boxes. ALL THE WAY MAE (4) resumes with strong Rosehill BM72 form from last campaign and a strong fresh record. Her latest second in a Hawkesbury trial suggests she is forward enough to run a big race. HARRY THE THIEF (1) returns from a five-week break with an excellent winning record. Won well first-up at Goulburn with the 131lbs and has a solid 5f profile. Respect in this stronger than country company. CHARLINA (6) handy mare who resumes off an easy Hawkesbury trial win and has a dominant Gosford Class 1 win on the CV. Will relish the claim and is ready to go from the low draw.

7	Comes here third-up with the best recent pattern, having won first-up at Newcastle before finishing second there, beaten a length and a half, as a dominant odds-on favourite. She raced keenly and lost gear late last start, so the defeat has context, and the prior win over Valilee was clean. Brings the clearest recent form and looks the horse to beat. 1st Pick 7 Emalyn Jockey: Liberty Smyth Trainer: Nathan Doyle J: Liberty Smyth T: Nathan Doyle	145	-	-	-	29%

4	Returns from a lengthy spell with a solid second in a Hawkesbury trial to bring her along. She was last seen finishing fifth at Rosehill in BM72 grade, beaten just under a length after being held up passing the 1 ½f, and had beaten She Swings there on heavy ground the start before. Strong fresh chance if she brings that form. 2nd Pick 4 All The Way Mae Jockey: Andrew Adkins Trainer: Kerry Parker J: Andrew Adkins T: Kerry Parker	88	-	-	-	15%

1	Returns from a five-week freshening after getting home by a nose at Goulburn, where he began awkwardly but travelled well and lengthened when required. This is a harder meeting than that country assignment, yet his profile is strong: three wins from five overall, proven at this track and distance, and unbeaten in two wet-track runs. Harder task now, but his 5f, wet-track and this-venue records keep him right in play. 3rd Pick 1 Harry The Thief Jockey: Siena Grima Trainer: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter J: Siena Grima T: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter	151	-	-	-	13%
