2nd pick2nd
3Argyle Springs
Argyle Springs looks the likely leader in a race with little other early speed, and that helps in a moderately run 1200m. Her Narromine second was close to a winning run and she has been solid in maidens. The concern is that she is winless from 13 starts and has tended to fade late. She is a sound place chance and a genuine each-way threat.
3rd pickWon
6South Eight
South Eight has a leading jockey and trainer combination behind him and his recent runs have come against stronger maiden fields. He is expected to settle at the back, which is a disadvantage when the pace is only moderate, but he should run on late. The barrier is a help. He is a place chance rather than a clear winner.
Value pick4th
4Graffi
Settling back is a negative, and the jockey's form is poor.

Winner3. Way To DivineSP $1.85
★ Top pick3rd
5Himeros
On form I rate Himeros the most likely winner. He is the only natural front-runner in a slow-run mile and he has won this grade over this trip on Good ground. His last start was against open-class rivals, so it can be forgiven. The main risks are the trainer's poor run and the extra weight.
2nd pickWon
3Way To Divine
Way To Divine is well placed in class and on the speed map, and she has won at this track and distance. I still rank her second because her wins have all come on Soft and she has not won on Good in 12 starts.
3rd pick4th
2Kelilah
Kelilah is the best of the rest on form. She has been competitive in tougher Bm58 company and gets a drop in class and a favourable map just off the speed. Her connections are in poor form and she has not won since June, which limits her.
Value pick2nd
4Bellman
He is a tough, consistent type dropping sharply in class, with a good mile record. The slow tempo and his back-marker style are concerns, but the track has been kind to midfield runners.

★ Top pick4th
4Chrislyn
Chrislyn was in the finish of a Grenfell maiden over this trip last start, going down by the barest margin. She now drops to the lowest weight in the field and should sit handy behind the speed in a moderate tempo. She has placed at 1400m before and is the best form fit.
2nd pick2nd
6Don'tdoubtdagoose
A three-year-old filly who has improved with gear changes and ran a solid fifth at Dubbo last start. She carries a light weight, should settle in the midfield where the track has been kind, and has the profile to progress.
3rd pick6th
7Nortoko
However, he has led in recent starts and been run down, and he is yet to win in 17 attempts.
Value pick3rd
2Meldirer
She has early speed and a good draw. Quick backup after eight days is a slight worry.

Winner7. Jade DivisionSP $12.00
★ Top pick2nd
6Commando Jack
In a race with no other real leader he should dictate in a slow tempo, and the drop to Bm50 is significant. His recent results are poor and he is short, so this is more about the weak opposition and soft map than rock-solid form, but he gets the nod over the rest.
2nd pick3rd
3Champ De Mars
A genuine place chance who has been running solid races against better opposition and drops in grade. She gets a handy trip in a slow race and has a very effective jockey and trainer combination.
3rd pick4th
2Golden Warrior
He is in the best recent form of the runners and drops in class, but today's map is a worry. A backmarker in a race with no genuine pace will need to make up ground in a slow tempo, and he is also carrying top weight.
999th pickScratched
5Tamieka Warrior
The negatives are the substantial weight rise, the lack of a confirmed rider and a maiden-only win record.
Value pick6th
1Firestorm Boy
A consistent type who is likely to get a handy run in a slow race and is dropping in grade.

Winner1. QuasimotoSP $3.20
★ Top pick2nd
3Elderberry Wine
Elderberry Wine is the pick on form. She ran a gallant second last week and her recent efforts have been at a winning standard for this class. Her natural speed should land her a handy trip in a moderate tempo, and she looks to be building towards a win.
2nd pickWon
1Quasimoto
Quasimoto bounced back with a leading second last start and has a good record on Good ground and at the distance. The weight is a concern, as he carries top weight, and he has won just once in his career.
3rd pick3rd
4Symphonite
Still, she has just one win from 15 starts, has no placing on Good ground, and is a backmarker in what is expected to be a moderate tempo.
Value pick4th
2Outlaw Annie
Outlaw Annie returns from a long break but has a good first-up record. She has the pace to get a handy trip from barrier 4 and has the booking of a jockey in strong form.

★ Top pick6th
10Loud
Loud's Gilgandra win showed she can run to a winning standard at this level, and she is the only runner in the field to have clearly done so recently. She settles close to the speed from a neutral draw, which suits a track with no leader bias. Recent runs have been flat, but a bounce back at level class is likely.
2nd pick5th
12Yael's Delight
Her map position behind a likely fast pace is ideal, and second up from a spell should help.
999th pickScratched
1Pattera
Pattera is a class-dropper with a strong Cowra effort and a recent Bm50 win, making him the most credible alternative on form. The concerns are 62.5kg from a wide gate in a race with two natural leaders likely to burn each other off. Respect his ability but he is hard to trust on top weight.
Value pick4th
6Fantasy Crowned
Fantasy Crowned has a good run behind him from Dubbo and drops in class, with a hot stable. However, he has raced keenly, rarely wins and has never won at this trip.
