6 ½f
Going:
Surface: T
NEESON (6) closed off strongly last start to get up for second, beaten one length, over 5½f at Nowra when coming back from a lay-off. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will prove hard to hold out. COMMANDING SHADOW (1) finished 3. 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 5f at Balranald nine days ago as 1/1 favourite. Steps up in distance. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expecting a bold showing. INSTIGATE (7) did little and finished 6 lengths from the winner in sixth over 6f at Wagga Riverside last start, a less impressive effort than her fourth at Cootamundra the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. LAUNCH MODE (3) returns from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when eighth over 5f190yards at Albury. Can make his presence felt while fresh.
