   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  We recall the Pitmans suggesting this one was a good prospect when it was a 2yo ... and 29 starts later its still maiden. Today might be its day

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

   ( T- Nayton Mitchell )

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

   ( J- Bridget Grylls )

  F: 43312   B(8)  W(69.0)

   ( J- Tyler Porteous )

   ( J- Alexandra Reed )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  F: 73122   B(5)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  One of two very strong chances for the Pitmans and given this one comes in at 3kg better than in their race four weeks, it looks a good chance in this small field

  Main Danger

  

  3 Purple Prose  

  F: 11312   B(4)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Andrew Carston )

  F: 63341   B(11)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  This 4yo mare is highly though of by the Pitmans and we should see it rise through the grades. Unfortunate to have draw so wide but class can see it through

  Main Danger

  

  3 Grouse  

  F: 91442   B(1)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- Ross Beckett )

  After finishing 3/4 length ahead of Wanderin Spelle last time, we are expecting a good run here again today as it has drawn the rails, when many of the more fancied runners have drawn wide. This apprentice is riding exceptionally well

  5 Boss 'N' Highheels  

  F: 12141   B(8)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  We expect Terri Rae didn't have to try hard to get Michael McNab south for this ride, an ex northerner in great form and a race with $75k up for grabs. Most impressed with its determined effort to get home last start

  Main Danger

  

  8 Elusive Impact  

  F: 58333   B(4)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

  2 Third Decree  

  F: 02522   B(5)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  The Pitmans are expecting this 7yo to be a strong chance and why not, as it is as honest as they come and might well have won any of its last four races

  Consider

  

  7 Graeme John  

  F: 16557   B(12)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Lisa Allpress )

   ( T- David Walsh )

  We're not expecting this one to win, coming out of gate 12, but there's not much depth in the field so it could run into a place

  3 Dimaggio  

  F: 61531   B(9)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Nayton Mitchell )

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )
