Verdict

BLUE EYED BRIGID (6) sets the standard after two placings this campaign, most recently second at Hawkesbury when an odds-on favourite on soft ground. She is third-up, gets weight relief and has already shown she is effective around 1m. Make plenty of appeal with Lloyd retaining the ride. INCEPTION (10) has been around the mark without winning, but his Port Macquarie fourth in a Class 3 had merit after beginning awkwardly when shouldering the 130lbs. Proven at the trip and gets a better setup. FEDERAL RESERVE (1) struck a bit of trouble at the start from the wide gate when ninth in a BM72 at Rosehill over 7f. Proven at the trip and gets map favours. GRUNGE (4) returns from a five-week freshening after fading in the straight with a dismal last over 1 ?m at Hawkesbury. Back to his preferred trip and won here two back over this trip. Improver.

6	Went within just over half a length of winning at Hawkesbury last start, finishing second in a Class 1 on soft ground after settling back and being pipped late as odds-on favourite. She had worked home solidly from a slow start at Kembla Grange before that, and now peaks third-up with weight relief. Brings the best recent profile and gets her chance to win. 1st Pick 6 Blue Eyed Brigid Jockey: Zac Lloyd Trainer: Brad Widdup J: Zac Lloyd T: Brad Widdup	173	-	-	-	90%

5	Broke through in decisive style at Newcastle last start, winning a Mdn by just under three lengths from Dance With Destiny after taking control before the turn. That followed a forgive run at Taree where she raced wide throughout on soft ground and faded late. Third-up with Regan Bayliss staying aboard, key danger. 2nd Pick 5 Perini Miss Jockey: Non Runner Trainer: Nathan Doyle J: Non Runner T: Nathan Doyle	133	-	-	-	1%	Scratched

3	Ran well in metro grade last start, finishing third in a CG BM72 at Warwick Farm on soft ground when beaten a length and a half by Fierceness after racing a touch keenly. He had earlier made solid late ground at Illawarra Grange in a Class 1, and his recent-season record reads strongly. Consistent this season and looks a genuine winning chance. 3rd Pick 3 Unbridled Storm Jockey: Non Runner Trainer: Chris Waller J: Non Runner T: Chris Waller	158	-	-	-	1%	Scratched
