Lismore Race 1 - Newton Denny Chapelle (Bm58)
AMALGAMATION (2) sent to town on the backup when a plugging eighth over 2406m at Eagle Farm in BM78 grade on November 1. Had a few excuses at the last two runs after progressing well earlier in the prep. Can bounce back without surprising. GIDDY GAN'S JOY (3) hit a career peak two-back when saluting over 2400m at the Gold Coast. Steep jump in trip and grade when a struggling sixth over 3200m at the Gold Coast. Gets the right run here and can return to the winner's list. SUN TOPAZE (6) finally drawn a decent gate and due for a change of luck. Speared across from the awkward draw and found wanting late when fifth over 2370m at Grafton. Leading contender at the good odds. GRIPPING (1) has failed to fire all prep after being kept safe in the betting. Won twice at the trip and senior rider hops on today.

Last start settled back and ran on when 6th of 9 at Gold Coast Bm70 on November 1 over 3200m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Likeabeel carrying 54kg at $8. Before that won by 1.75 len at Gold Coast Bm65 October 18 over 2400m defeating Tennessee Whiskey with 54kg at $5. Struggled to see the 3200m out last start, improver.
