KUNDA (5) last appeared when too good (22.66) over 388m at Gosford on October 22. Has not been seen since finishing third (22.66) over 388m at Gosford on October 22. Looks well placed here and should prove hard to beat on best. DELICATE ROSE (1) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Maiden at Gunnedah. Well placed here and should do much better. NOAH'S MEKONG (2) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing sixth (24.15) at this track. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Worth following up. COCO BELLA (3) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Won two starts back over 340m at Gunnedah. Last start she finished 6th over 400m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (23.58) behind Poppy's Darlin' in a Grade 5 on June 11. Draw likely to suit. Should be right in the finish.

Goes well at this track and trip. Last start finished last over 431m at Gunnedah beaten 21 lengths (26.28) behind Go Forward Block in a Grade 5 on May 28. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by 1.75 lengths at Casino (17.35) beating Get That Barb in a Maiden on May 30. Can't recommend against this lot.

Returns from a break and was a winner at only other try fresh, which was at first career start scoring at Gosford over 388m. Looks a winning chance fresh.

Missed the frame latest (19.99) when fourth over 340m at Gunnedah in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two places from two starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
