Quirindi Race 2 - Quirindi Boxing Day Races Mdn Plate
Debutant BRIGHT EYED BABY (11) is a Profiteer filly on debut for the Hull camp, and gets the nod on the back of a smart Beaumont trial win last week. Jumps from a sticky draw but suspect she has enough toe to overcome and give her backers a great look. GOD'S WINTER ROSE (7) is another debutante with trial merit. Heavelon VDH can have her blending in at the right time from the kind draw. NORDIC STAR (8) looks best of the raced bunch and resumes with two handy trials under her belt that suggest she's come on well during the break. Nock will need to be clever from the wide draw. FROG ROCK (5) just missed when resuming at Muswellbrook, but was no match for them last time. Tough to tip with confidence, but is worth keeping safe for a minor spot. CLARRY'S RUN (1) is another debutant that has shown enough in his two trials to deserve consideration.

Debuts with two trials behind him, including a close second at Scone before finishing third at Muswellbrook. The 1.5kg claim for Jack Baker helps offset the 59kg impost, although the outside half of the draw gives him a little to manage at his first race start. Keeping safe in the minors.

Second-up after a sound debut third at Wauchope on heavy ground, beaten a length in a small field when near the top of an open market. First-time blinkers are a positive gear move and he has already placed at the distance, but barrier 10 and 59kg make this no easy follow-up. He can roll forward, though he still has to turn that debut promise into a stronger winning effort. Looking to others.

Back after two months on the sidelines following a plain Tamworth run where he raced keenly and wide before finishing last, beaten over 13 lengths at big odds. He had also been beaten over 11 lengths as favourite at Armidale, so the form has gone the wrong way. First-time blinkers and a 3kg claim offer some help, but his 1000m record remains a genuine concern and a major turnaround is required. Can't recommend.

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending the last campaign with two heavy Ballarat Synthetic defeats, finishing last both times and beaten over 16 lengths. He was unwanted in the market when last seen behind Egerton Reef and had no clear excuse after leading. A trainer change and 1.5kg claim are fresh angles, but he resumes with a record of six starts without a placing and has plenty to prove. Can't entertain.

Had his chance to progress at Scone last start but began awkwardly, settled back and finished second last, beaten just over seven lengths at generous odds. His Muswellbrook second the start prior was much better, beaten a head after sitting handy and finishing strongly. Third-up fitness and a 1.5kg claim help, though one placing from five tries around 1000m keeps him more a solid place hope than a win anchor. Keeping onside.

Eases back from provincial company after finishing seventh at Newcastle, where she was slow away and beaten just under six lengths at long odds. The Taree run prior was much worse after barrier issues, so her starting manners are a recurring concern. Not doing enough.

Makes her debut with a useful piece of trial evidence, having finished a close third at Beaumont over 800m last month. That is a sound platform for a maiden of this depth, and barrier three gives her every chance to be educated kindly on race day. Looks one of the main dangers.

Returns from a lengthy spell with two trials behind her, including a latest third at Gosford, so she should have some readiness for this first-up assignment. Her last campaign finished with a fifth at Taree when near the top of betting, and she was also respected at Wyong despite not handling the home turn cleanly. Wide draw is the query, but she has enough prior market respect to run well.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a fourth at Gunnedah, beaten five lengths by Bellerata when starting at generous odds. Her previous Newcastle run was poor in stronger provincial company, but she does have a prior placing from her only start at this venue. Long maiden record keeps her to each-way territory.

Returns from a lengthy spell with two trials to prepare, the latest a third at Tamworth, and barrier two gives her a kinder starting point than many. She was beaten over 11 lengths at Canberra Acton before the break despite being near the top of betting, after covering ground and offering little late. Last run was poor, but the setup is better for a place rebound.

Debuts off the strongest trial signal in the race, winning an easy Beaumont trial last week over 800m. The stable has a healthy debut record with two wins and four placings from eight first starters, which adds substance to that piece of work. Can overcome the wide draw and make a winning start.

Starts her career after a Beaumont trial last week in which she finished seventh over 1000m, beaten 5.7 lengths. Jake Pracey-Holmes is one of the leading jockeys at this track, which is a plus for a debutante, but the trial result itself does not demand strong support. With no race experience and limited positive evidence, she will have to show more than she has displayed publicly. Not at this stage.

Debuts from barrier one for Scott Singleton and Mikayla Weir, both top-ranked for wins at this track, so the stable and rider profile is clearly in her favour. Her latest Muswellbrook trial was back in July, when fourth and beaten 1.21 lengths, so race-day readiness has to be taken on trust. Trial form is dated, but she has place appeal.
