BOLO MISS (3) has filled a minor placing at both runs to date, the latest when beaten a head into second over 1000m at Orange. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will prove tough to beat. BEST DEFENCE (7) is a nine-start maiden who could only manage to finish sixth after being in the firing line on the bend at his latest appearance over 1006m at Port Macquarie. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. LOOKACROSSTHEWATER (10) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start over 1000m at Wagga, beaten 1.2 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. IMASTATEMENT (6) has not raced since her debut back on October 4 when she finished eighth over 1000m at Dubbo. Expected to be right there at the business end.
