Emerald Race 1 - Hwc Building Contractors Mdn Hcp
BULLRUN (2) brings the most reliable current pointer after resuming with a second at Emerald, and while this is a stronger assignment than that picnic-grade return, he has already placed at the distance and gets a suitable maiden to press on with. GRAPHIEN (5) has a more forgiving last-start profile than the margin suggests, having been slow away and wide throughout at Aramac, while her prior Rockhampton run was far more competitive. EARLY EDITION (9) resumes from a break and his Carrathool second reads well enough for this, though the drop back from 1200m to 1000m is the main reservation. SAINT ANNS (12) is the steadier each-way option: she has placed regularly, won an easy MacKay trial and has enough recent substance to be competitive fresh, but her 1000m record keeps her just behind the top trio.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a debut at Gatton where he was last and well beaten by 23 lengths behind Dibba Dobba after being hampered shortly after the start. Needs sharp improvement under 61kg.

Second-up after a sound Emerald return, finishing second over 1000m and beaten just over four lengths by Anthropology in picnic company. This is a harder race, but he has placed at this distance and Warwick Satherley stays with a lightly raced gelding who can settle back and finish off if the race is run to suit. Harder now, but his placed form gives him a strong winning case.

Returns from a one-month freshening after a forgivable Aramac fourth, where she was slow to begin and raced wide throughout before being beaten over 12 lengths by Cairo Queen in picnic grade. This is harder, but her Rockhampton run prior was much better, beaten two and a half lengths after working home evenly. Harder race, but she is fit and well placed.

Eases back from provincial grade after catching the eye late at Rockhampton, where she began awkwardly, was held up leaving the 400m and still closed off for fifth, beaten just over six lengths behind Red Scentsation. Her previous run behind Next Stop Jupiter was only fair at big odds, and Graphien had her measure there. Needs to turn around the Graphien form, but can place.

Debuts off a Rockhampton trial last month and brings a $40,000 yearling background, but there is not enough public evidence to be strong. The Darryl Johnston and Better Than Ready combination has a small but positive sample, which is worth noting, yet this filly still has to produce under race pressure. Some profile interest, but race experience looks against her.

Returns from a six-month break after a good Carrathool second, beaten a length and a half by Safe And Warm when an outside chance in the market. This is harder than that picnic-grade run, but it was a clear improvement on his Albury failure at big odds on soft ground. Claim and blinkers help, though the 1000m return is the query.

Was slow to begin at Emerald last start and finished fourth, beaten just under five lengths behind Anthropology, with Bullrun ahead of her in the same race. That was a better effort than her Muttaburra sixth, where she was beaten over 16 lengths despite some market support. Place claims are stronger than the win case.

Returns from a four-month break with an easy MacKay trial win to support her readiness. She placed at Bowen last start over 1200m, beaten just under five lengths, and had earlier run third at Emerald after beginning awkwardly, racing wide and hanging in. The 1000m record is the main knock.
