The 3YO gelding is showing an improving form trend and gets the services of Brad Parnham. Drawn to get the perfect run from barrier 5, he should be able to settle midfield and use his superior closing speed.

Love Of Far Fa showed significant improvement last start with a strong 3rd at this track and distance. Natasha Faithfull retains the ride, which is a positive. With natural improvement from her last run, she should be right in the finish.
Neap Tide brings consistent form to this race with two placings from 11 starts. While he's yet to break through for a win, he has experience at staying distances and should be competitive. The wide barrier and top weight are concerns.
Drawing barrier 1 is a significant advantage, and he's experienced at the distance.

She's Capitana brings the strongest combination of factors despite being unraced - barrier 1 is ideal for the 1000m at Northam, William Pike's engagement is significant, and trainer Adam Durrant rarely presents unprepared first-starters. The predicted fast tempo should allow her to settle and finish strongly from the perfect draw.
The mare has only had 2 career starts but showed promise when placing 3rd on debut. Second-up today with a good draw in barrier 4, she should improve significantly and has the tactical speed to take advantage of the predicted fast tempo.
The engagement of Chloe Azzopardi is significant, and barrier 7 is workable at Northam's fair 1000m start. The predicted fast tempo should allow this runner to find a position and finish strongly.
Second-up today after a 38-day freshen and dropping significantly in class from metropolitan racing. The blinkers go back on which should sharpen her up, and the tongue control bit is added for the first time.

Radiant Light brings the strongest form to this race, having competed admirably in Open company races. The significant class drop to maiden grade is a major plus, and his first-up record shows he can perform fresh. With a good draw and top jockey Steven Parnham aboard, he looks well-placed to break through for a maiden win.
Dominatus brings solid recent form with a 3rd placing at Ascot 11 days ago. The engagement of William Pike is significant, and the horse appears to be improving with each run. The class drop from his last start is advantageous, and he should get a good run from a midfield position. The step up to 1400m looks suitable based on his racing pattern.
The addition of blinkers should sharpen him up, and he's drawn to get a good run from barrier 2.
Second-up today, she should show natural improvement from her first-up run. The fast tempo predicted should suit her backmarker style, and with only 55kg she could finish strongly.

Busy Fingers brings the strongest form credentials with two seconds from three career starts. His recent second at Geraldton when resuming was excellent, and he should improve second-up. The William Pike engagement is significant, and he maps to get a perfect midfield position from barrier 3. With a very fast tempo predicted, he'll get every chance to finish over the top of the leaders.
That was his first run since April and he should improve significantly second-up. The barrier draw is perfect and he drops significantly in class from his previous open company races. Steven Parnham retains the ride and he should be right in the finish.
Champagne Cathay brings solid credentials with two seconds and a third from 11 starts. The significant class drop from previous starts is a major positive, and she's well drawn in barrier 6. Her recent fifth at Northam was better than it looks, and Holly Watson knows her well.
She's been competing in much stronger open company races and drops significantly in class here. The barrier draw is ideal and the return to blinkers is a positive gear change. The light weight of 54kg is another advantage.

Fast Harry brings the strongest credentials with a perfect second-up record and impressive win last start at this track. William Pike retains the ride, and despite the equal top weight, he appears well-placed to handle this field.
Her recent form includes a close 2nd two starts back, and she drops 2kg from her last run. While barrier 11 is a concern with the predicted fast tempo, her closing ability could be suited if the leaders tire.
The significant class drop is a major positive, and she's well-drawn in barrier 4 with a light weight of 55.5kg.
She's well-weighted on the minimum 54kg and drawn favorably in barrier 3.

TABtouch Better Your Bet Hcp (C1)
Lightly-raced 3YO filly with significant upside after winning one of her two career starts. Her maiden win came first-up at this track over 1100m on soft going. Gets the services of WA's premier jockey William Pike from a good draw, and while stepping up in class, the weight advantage and progressive profile suggest she can continue improving. The Williams stable excels with developing types.
Consistent mare who has found form with consecutive placings in similar company. While she's only won once from 16 starts, her place strike rate of 31% demonstrates her consistency. Chris Parnham is a positive jockey booking, and she appears ready to peak third-up from a spell.
Consistent gelding who has been racing well with a 3rd and 4th in his last two starts. The quick 11-day backup suggests he's fit and ready, though the wide barrier is a concern. Patrick Carbery is an experienced jockey who should give him every chance despite the awkward draw.
She's been racing in stronger company and drops significantly in class here. The good draw and lightweight are additional positives.

Has proven class credentials and should be suited by the likely fast tempo, allowing him to settle midfield and finish strongly.
Gets in with a nice weight advantage and has proven ability on good tracks. While facing a class rise, his recent form suggests he's ready for the challenge. Should get a good midfield position from barrier 8 and be strong late.
Lova Session brings strong track and distance credentials (4:1-2-1) and should be prominent from the start. While recent form has been below her best, the return to a favored track and distance is significant. William Pike's engagement is a positive, and she's likely to get the run of the race from barrier 5. May be vulnerable late carrying 60kg.
His recent win two starts back showed his ability, and while he disappointed last start, the return to Northam where he has a good record (4:1-0-0) is significant. The 11-day turnaround is ideal, and he should appreciate the likely fast tempo, allowing him to settle and finish strongly.

Her strong mile statistics (7:3-0-1) and consistent recent form, including a close 2nd in Listed company at Kalgoorlie, make her well-placed to handle this assignment. The light weight (54kg) and proven ability to perform fresh are significant advantages in this field.
Prophet And Power brings excellent mile credentials (5:3-0-2) and comes off a last-start win at Ascot. The 8-day backup ensures peak fitness, and the 54kg impost is favorable. While stepping up in class, his consistent form line makes him a genuine threat.
His consistent form pattern and proven ability in similar company make him a genuine contender despite the 58kg impost. The 36-day freshen-up is the main query, but his second-up record (5:4-0-0) suggests he performs well after a break. Barrier 2 could be problematic with the predicted fast tempo.
His recent form (1741) is strong, and he's well-weighted with 56kg.

Jayashree brings the strongest form credentials, dropping significantly in class after competing in Group 3 company. The fast tempo should suit her midfield running style, and she maps to get a perfect run from barrier 4. The main concern is the topweight of 58.5kg, but her class edge compensates.
Vexatious Rose is the definition of consistency with three consecutive third placings, including two at this track. While she's yet to win and is stepping up in class, her progressive profile suggests there's more improvement to come. The addition of ear muffs pre-race could help her settle better.
Battle Commander is dropping significantly in class and brings consistent recent form with a 7-2-5 record in his last three starts. He's perfectly drawn in barrier 1 and should get an economical run in the fast-tempo race. While his win strike rate is poor (1 from 27), he's placed 8 times and is well suited by the Good track. The main query is his ability at the mile distance.
She's a proven miler with a win at the distance and has placed twice at this track from four attempts. Her last start 3rd at Northam was encouraging, and she'll appreciate the fast tempo as a backmarker. While she's drawn wide in barrier 9, the long Northam straight gives her time to wind up.
