Canberra Race 7 - Harvey Norman Commercial (Bm60)
MISS DEFY (6) is the one to beat off a sharp BM66 second at Albury, where she travelled kindly and closed within just under two lengths of Fair Master. She is proven at the 2000m with two wins and two placings from six attempts, has won at this track and distance, and the quick back-up is a positive. SNAP DECISION (2) brings the best recent Nowra line, finishing third as favourite after being slow away and suffering interference near the home turn, with Brodie Loy back aboard after a win from two rides on him. MIDNIGHT AFFAIR (1) has been around the mark in BM66 and BM65 grade, beaten just under a length by Marsabit at Wagga after placing at this venue the run prior, and the 2kg claim helps offset the big impost. PURE MELODY (4) is the progressive danger after charging home to win a Class 1 at this track, with barrier one and a sound jockey-horse record keeping her in the mix.

Closed off another honest run when fourth in a BM66 at Wagga, beaten just under a length by Marsabit after being sent out a well-supported favourite. That followed a sound second in BM65 company at this track, and her record of two placings from three goes around 2000m is relevant. The 2kg claim helps, provided she absorbs the top weight.

Had genuine excuses when third at Nowra, beaten half a length by Splendid Magnus after being slow to begin and meeting interference near the home turn. He was safely held in a BM66 at Albury the run prior, but the latest effort is the key guide and the winning rider returns. Clear running puts him right in the winning discussion.

Went close in a BM66 at Wagga when second to Marsabit, beaten a neck as a well-supported favourite, and she did beat Midnight Affair there. The concern is that she has been placed rather than winning at both this track and around 2000m, while the wide draw adds another task. Ugly map and will need a good ride.

Charged home from well back to win a Class 1 at this track last start, scoring by a head at generous odds after covering ground. She had also finished third at this venue on soft ground two back despite beginning slowly and being held up passing the 250m. Honest profile, though this asks for another step in performance.

Worked home from a rearward spot when sixth at Orange last start, beaten just over three lengths by Ferrari Man, but there was no clear excuse, and he was only an outside chance in betting. His first run this campaign was an eighth in Class 2 company at this track, and he has been unplaced in two goes around 2000m. Well drawn and place only.

Comes through the right BM66 form after finishing second at Albury, beaten just under two lengths by Fair Master, and she did it at odds after travelling well and picking up strongly. The quick back-up suits, she is proven at 2000m with two wins and two placings from six starts, and her track-and-trip credentials strengthen the case. Brings the clearest winning platform.

Broke through at Nowra last start, beating Zippy Lion by a long neck over 1600m on soft ground as an outside chance in betting. The run prior at Wagga Riverside had merit given she was slow away, raced wide and was bumped, but she now tackles 2000m for the first time and is new to this track. First go at 2000m is the clear query.

Finished strongly for second at Nowra, beaten a long neck by Splendid Magnus over 1600m, which was a clear return to form. His previous fifth in a Class 1 at this track was plain on paper, though he jumped awkwardly, was held up and tightened late. In leading yard and should get the trip.

Has been consistent this campaign, most recently second at Orange when beaten just under a length by Ferrari Man after travelling well and picking up impressively. She had earlier worked into third at Goulburn over 1600m and her season record is sound, with one win and three places from five starts. First attempt around 2000m is the hurdle to a stronger winning push.

Had some excuse when seventh at Nowra, beaten three and a half lengths by Splendid Magnus after interference near the home turn and being held up late. Even so, he was unwanted in the market and had finished sixth at Goulburn the run prior. Outclassed.
