As a consistent stayer in regular preparation, the slight class drop and ideal barrier 2 position him to control the moderate tempo from the front.

A prior near-miss at 2100m and slight class drop bolster her claims, with barrier 4 aiding positioning. While untested at distance, her form patterns suggest she handles the rise better than most, offering place security.

Our price $12.00 · SP $41.00 · Bronte Simpson

His strong good track record (4 wins from 41) and light weight suit the staying test, though unproven at 2200m.

Territory Style stands out on form with a solid second at Armidale two starts back over 1100m, demonstrating ability to hit the line strongly. Barrier 2 is ideal for Scone's sprint chute start, allowing a soft run midfield in a very fast tempo. Recent 1000m run at Dubbo yielded a credible fourth, and with fitness from short spell, this gelding is primed to break maiden status ahead of less proven rivals.

Laizabout's consistent form, including a Scone 2nd, positions her well for this class drop. Stronger than most due to recent trends and gear tweaks, though unproven at distance tempers expectations slightly.

Spenzalot's Scone experience (1 win, recent 3rd) and barrier 5 make her a solid contender in this fair setup. On-pace style suits the tempo and bias towards leaders/on-pacers.

Our price $4.50 · SP $3.80 · Braith Nock

Spicy Surprise is a model of consistency, placing in both starts at 1400m including a 3rd at Scone. In a very fast tempo, he can settle midfield and use the long straight, though barrier 9 is a minor knock.

Our price $6.50 · SP $21.00 · William A Stanley

Her experience at Scone (0-1-0) and overall place rate of 14% in maidens highlight reliability. The fast tempo favors her closing style, and inside-moderate barrier suits. Despite no wins, her consistency edges out less proven rivals in this weak maiden field.

Our price $7.50 · SP $5.00 · Andrew Gibbons

Blinkers debut could help, and barrier 5 is neutral on Scone's fair layout. Lacks 1200m form but has placed at shorter trips; fast tempo may suit if he settles midfield. Edges debutants due to proven racing ability in this maiden.

Our price $10.00 · SP $21.00 · Reece Jones

Sun To Me offers value from barrier 2, ideally suited to Scone's inside bias and on-pace favoritism.

Our price $10.00 · SP $9.50 · Mikayla Weir

Barrier 2 suits the inside bias, and class drop to BM58 helps. Good track affinity (2-2-3 from 15), but lacks distance wins and Scone success tempers expectations. Edges others with fitness and tempo suitability for midfield run.

Our price $12.00 · SP $18.00 · Alysha Collett

Slight class drop and consistent places (27% rate) make her competitive in fast tempo, though barrier 12 is a knock.

Our price $8.00 · SP $7.50 · Aaron Bullock

Flying Argyle benefits from barrier 3 in a race with moderate inside bias, allowing early position in a very fast tempo. Recent third at Port Macquarie shows fitness, though low win strike and class rise temper win hopes. Suited to the fair Scone layout rewarding class over bias.

Our price $6.50 · SP $15.00 · Alysha Collett

Trapeze Legend offers value as a proven Scone 1100m winner (1 from 1), second up where she has a 100% win rate. Despite a recent sixth, her prior Bathurst win indicates readiness, and the very fast tempo suits her style. First-up was unplaced but spell sharpens her.
