DrinkWise (Bm66)
She is only a small risk of failing on the wet track, where she has no wins from four starts.
He has the best chance of controlling the race from the front and the soft track is no issue. The concern is the step up to 2100m, because he has faded after leading over shorter trips in the wet.
A consistent type who has ran well over distance and gets in with a light weight after a drop in class. The slow tempo is against his closing style, but any sign of genuine pace would help him.

He has been placed at this level, ran a bold fourth on Soft 5 last start and won a trial here on similar ground.
His early speed suits a moderate tempo, although barrier 10 makes it harder to lead.
Has the standout connections stat in the race and one very good run at Tuncurry. Being a backmarker in a moderately run race is a worry, and he has never raced on a soft surface. He is worth including, with the booking of Aaron Bullock a positive sign.
Her Dubbo run was honest and the jockey and trainer connection wins often.

Steel Knight ran a gutsy second last start in a higher grade and now drops to Class 1. It handles soft ground and has raced over this course and distance. The 62kg and barrier 8 are real negatives, and he's a maiden-type at this trip, but he is still the most likely winner in an open-looking race.
Seductra finishes her races well, ran a very good second on soft ground earlier this year, and should be sharper second-up. The concerns are 60kg from a wide gate and a moderate tempo that could make it hard to run down the leaders from back in the field.
She is well suited by soft ground, drops in grade and has an on-pace style.
Albert's Pick won her last start well from the three-wide trail and gets a pace advantage here. She is stepping up in grade and hasn't won on soft ground, and her trainer is in poor form. Each-way is the sensible approach.

New Era Technology Hcp (C1)
He has been competitive at a higher level, was beaten a very short margin at Newcastle and ran on well on soft at Randwick. He has won at this track on soft ground and drops in class. Top weight and a wide draw are the risks, but he should be handy in a moderate tempo and is the most likely winner.
Ran to a high standard when winning on soft at Muswellbrook and has kept improving, including a winning trial last start. The inside draw allows him to slot in handy in a moderate tempo. First-up from a long spell and a class jump are legitimate concerns, but he has the ability to win this.
Only a rare winner, but he is the one runner who can control this race from the front in an open-lead, moderate tempo, and he consistently runs into the placings on soft ground. Blinkers back on and a good barrier help.

He sits midfield, which should be fine in a slow-run race, and the blinkers could provide the push to finally win.
Her tactical speed is the key asset with a slow tempo expected, and her third two starts back was close to a winning performance. She weakened badly last start after racing wide, so the blinkers and a better trip are needed.
An improving type who ran a solid third last start and gets to race forward in a slow-tempo contest. The wide gate is a concern, but the jockey knows the track well and the tongue tie is a positive.
A frustrating runner, but the race shape gives him a genuine chance to dictate in front. If he gets an easy lead he can stretch the field and be hard to catch, especially with gear changes.

NZB Country Boosted (Bm58)
Fancy Shoulder is the most likely winner on form. She is the only confirmed leader in a moderately run 1200m sprint and has just run two narrow seconds at this grade, both from the front. The draw is good, she is proven on soft ground and she is back to her best distance. The main risk is being run down late again, but the map suits her.
Starry Jack ran the race of his life at Port Macquarie on 10 October at this same grade. He held them all off and only lost it in the stewards' room. The 4kg claim makes his weight manageable, he will be handy from the inside draw and his soft record is solid.
He is lightly raced, has won on soft ground and has a strong jockey-trainer combination. However, he has to carry top weight on his first start at BM58 and against older, more exposed rivals.
He is second up, has won on soft ground and has a good place record, and his jockey is in good form and knows the track. The wide draw and a back-of-the-field run in a modest tempo make it hard to win.

The Prince of Merewether (Bm66)
Chestime is the most reliable form horse in the race. She has run to a winning standard in her last three starts, won on Soft at Taree and has raced well at Beaumont over this trip. The wide draw and top weight are negatives, but she can settle in midfield and finish well.
Jade Trees comes here in terrific form with three wins in his last four, and he handles the wet. The jockey combination is strong.
Sipping Shamus holds the best position on the map and carries a feather weight on a soft track. The wide draw makes it harder to cross to the lead, and he has tended to tire late when taken on. Still, his tempo-control profile and the low weight make him a danger in a moderately run race.
He is second up from a break and ran on well last start, and the moderate tempo suits his on-pace style.
