Ladbrokes Geelong Race 1 - Sharing Tullis Smile Fund Mdn Plate
A lot of first-starters here, which makes things tricky, but none of them have produced multiple outstanding trials or jumpouts, which means TOMMYESS (8) deserves top billing after a highly encouraging debut at Sale. Should have taken great improvement from that and is drawn to get every chance. BAYCAT (9) has placed in three of four starts to date and while she's had her chance in most of them that experience could prove crucial here. JASMINA (11) disappointed terribly on debut but the pre-race support suggested she has more talent than we saw that day, so warrants another chance. MUIRFIELD (6) could be the best of the first-starters after impressing in a recent Cranbourne jumpout when not beaten far despite not being knocked about. NEAR NELSON (15) should be better for the debut preparation.

First starter by All Too Hard out of Per Perseverance purchased for AUD $ 80,000 (Inglis 2023 Premier Yearling Sale). Has a total of four trials prior to his debut today. Prefer to see on debut off what we've seen at the trials.

Resuming after a nine months break. Finished off last campaign second last of 10 at Mornington 2yo F Hcp June 10 over 1200m, soft track; 13 len behind Benagil carrying 53.5kg at $26. On debut sixth of 8 at Sandown-Hillside 2yo F Hcp May 25 over 1000m, soft track; 5.5 len behind Heinous carrying 56kg at $11. Capable of a bold return.
