SMOKE 'N' OAKUM (4) has recorded three minor placings from three starts this campaign, the latest when third as a well-fancied conveyance over 6½f at this track. Suited in this and he is well placed to break through. BOROGORU (11) faced the starter for the first time and finished seventh last start at Eagle Farm over 6f, beaten 4 lengths. Likely improver and worth following up. RESURRECTED (3) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing a neck away in second over 7f65yards at Queanbeyan. Bold showing expected. SHEKINAH (15) is a four-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 1.75 lengths when sixth over 6f at Ipswich. Settles back early but winds up late. Will be doing her best work late.
