1Cheval De Bois

10Sea Me Dance
Sea Me Dance brings strong staying credentials with two placings from 11 starts. The gear changes (ear muffs pre-race, winkers again) should help her settle. Will get back but should be strong late over the mile.
3rd pick5th
6Bawnaglen
He has valuable track experience with five previous runs at Scone including a second placing. The step up to 1600m is a query, but his running style suggests he'll appreciate the extra distance, especially with a fast tempo predicted.
Value pickScratched
4Questionable
The application of blinkers first time is a significant gear change that should sharpen her focus.

4Yasena
While yet to break through for a win, her consistency is impressive with 2 placings from 5 starts. The mare handles Good tracks well and has Jake Pracey-Holmes aboard who knows her well. The quick backup is a slight concern but suggests connections are striking while she's in form.
2nd pick8th
1Mr Bazza
The 4YO gelding has a good second-up record with 1 placing from 1 attempt. The wide barrier is a concern, but having top jockey Aaron Bullock aboard is a significant plus. The weight (59kg) is the main negative, but his recent form suggests he's ready to run well.
3rd pickWon
8Sigsaly
The mare has been consistent without winning, recording a 3rd placing from 5 starts. The lightweight of 55kg is advantageous, and she should get a perfect run from barrier 1. The slight decline in recent form is a concern, but the inside draw could be the difference.
Value pick5th
3Looking The Part
The wide barrier is a concern, but having quality jockey Reece Jones aboard is a significant plus. While unplaced last start, he has shown ability with a 2nd placing two starts back and should improve second-up.

5Gold Capital
Gold Capital brings the strongest recent form into this race with a close 2nd over 2100m last start. Well-weighted with 56.5kg and drawn perfectly in barrier 5, he should get an ideal run in midfield. The step back to 1700m looks ideal and he appears ready to break through.
2nd pick2nd
3Spenzalot
Has been racing consistently with 3 top-4 finishes from his last 3 completed starts. The engagement of Aaron Bullock is a significant plus, and he's proven at Scone with 1 win from 5 starts at the track. Well-drawn in barrier 4, he should get an ideal run in midfield and be strong late.
3rd pickScratched
6Don't Tell Jack
Don't Tell Jack comes off a win at Bowraville over 1370m two starts back before failing at Scone last start. Well-drawn in barrier 3 with a lightweight of 55.5kg, he should get a good run in the race.
Value pick4th
4Wicked Games
Wicked Games comes off a win at Muswellbrook over 1280m followed by a solid 4th at Wellington over 1400m last start. Carries just 55.5kg with in-form apprentice Shae Wilkes aboard.

10Mercy Me
The perfect barrier draw (1) is a major advantage at Scone for 1000m races, and the Nathan Doyle stable excels with first-up runners.
2nd pick3rd
8Sosueme
First-up from a spell but has performed well fresh previously. The barrier is slightly wide but with the likely fast tempo, she should get a good position midfield. New gear (tongue tie and winkers) could spark improvement. Represents solid each-way value with a strong chance of finishing in the placings.
3rd pick6th
9Go Russian
Has experience at this track with a placing from three starts. The wide barrier is a concern, but with her early speed, she could cross and find a position.
Value pick8th
11The Palace
Returns from a spell but gets a significant class drop from previous racing. The wide barrier is a concern, but with the likely fast tempo and Scone's long straight, she can settle back and use her strong finishing burst.

★ Top pick5th
4Broken Wings
Broken Wings brings the strongest recent form into this race with a dominant win at Quirindi 18 days ago. With Aaron Bullock aboard from an ideal barrier, she maps to get a perfect midfield run with cover and should be finishing strongly in a race likely to be run at a genuine tempo. The class rise is offset by her clear form advantage.
2nd pickWon
6Myriad
Myriad brings solid recent form with a win at Port Macquarie two starts back and a respectable 4th at Wyong last start. While stepping up in class, the weight advantage over the top selection gives him strong claims. His tactical speed should allow him to secure a prominent position, though he may be vulnerable late if the tempo is too strong.
3rd pick2nd
2Straand Care
Straand Care returns from a spell with a solid record at this track (1:1-0-0) and has shown ability in this class previously. While first-up from a 223-day spell, his second-up record (1:1-0-0) suggests he typically improves with a run under his belt. The top weight of 61kg is a concern, but his class edge gives him place claims.
Value pick7th
8Elusive Babbz
His record at the distance (8:2-0-1) is solid, and he gets in with just 55.5kg from a good barrier.

Truce brings perfect Scone form with a win and a second from two starts. While stepping up in class, she's shown natural ability and consistency that suggests further improvement. The barrier draw suits her running style and Reece Jones maintains the partnership after their last start second.
2nd pick3rd
2Nirmata
Nirmata brings an impressive record of 1 win and 1 second from just 2 starts. While facing a class rise and coming off a 41-day freshen, his natural talent and tactical speed from barrier 4 make him a genuine threat. Ben Looker retains the ride which is a positive.

This progressive 3YO filly from the Cavanough stable is showing an upward form trajectory with 1 win and 1 second from 4 starts. While facing a class rise and drawn wide in barrier 8, her tactical versatility and weight advantage (55kg) give her strong claims. The stable is in good form.

Kantishna brings the strongest combination of recent form and proven ability at this distance. With an advantageous barrier draw and a proven ability to handle the distance, she maps to get a perfect midfield position in a race with very fast tempo.

1Inazuma Boy
Inazuma Boy brings class to this field with an impressive 50% win strike rate and consistent form. While first-up from a lengthy spell, his record when fresh is excellent (2: 1-1-0). He's proven at the distance and should be prominent from the outset. The weight (61kg) is the main concern, but his class edge compensates for this.

7Thrilling Venture
Thrilling Venture is a progressive 3yo filly who won impressively two starts back at Muswellbrook. She's dropping in class from her last start and has a win at this track previously. The gear change to visors could sharpen her focus. The main concern is the wide barrier which may force her to settle further back than ideal in a race with very fast tempo.
