Verdict

OLYMPIAN (5) is a lightly raced four-year-old back after a 19-week break. Form through the first part of last prep was very good, highlighted by a 0.7 length fourth in the Group 3 Carbine Club over the Randwick mile. Should be forward enough to run a big race on the back of three recent trials. Honest mare GLASTONBURY GIRL (9) has been in the money at both runs this prep, the latest over 1450m at the Illawarra Grange circuit when sent around at $1.65. Very fit and if she can slot in from a wide alley a well-deserved win looks on the cards. PUERTO BANUS (6) made it two wins from his last three runs when he charged home late to just get the prize over 1250m at this track. Has outstanding stats here and at this distance so he is a serious contender again. ELLOFADUDE (8) comfortably scored in a Taree Class 3 over 1263m recently. Fitter for two runs back from a spell so another big run is on the cards. HEY JUDE (12) made a solid return at Kembla last time and is open to improvement.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 11 in a Cg&E Bm64 at Gosford on August 28 over 1200m, slow going 1.0 len behind Edge Of Midnight carrying 57.5kg at $7.50. Second-up favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 3 len in a Cl3 Bm66 at Taree on September 22 over 1263m on a rain affected track defeating Cool Az Aletta with 58.5kg at $1.80. Should figure in the finish.

Second-up. First-up after six months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 in a F&M Bm64 at Kembla Grange on September 12 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Temptation with 58.5kg at $7. Previously second-up 6th of 8 in a Cl1 at Kembla Grange on February 24 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind Rivendell with 55.5kg at $7. Shaping up nicely and is among the chances.

At the latest run won by a head in a Bm64 at this track on September 19 over 1250m defeating Art Volant with 60kg at $17. The start before that ran last of 9 in a Cg&E Bm72 at Canterbury on August 26 over 1250m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Castlejohn with 56.5kg at $81. This is his right level and he looks sure to be in the finish.

Most recently ran on from midfield and won by 0.7 len in a Cl2-Sw at Canberra on September 18 over 1300m defeating Kendalia carrying 57kg at $13. The start before that 5th of 9 in a F&M Bm64 at Beaumont (Newcastle) on August 25 over 1350m, slow going 6 len behind Erina carrying 58.5kg at $16. Tougher this time but is not without claims.
