DE FORZA (2) will find this a little easier than his second on debut a week-and-a-half ago, beaten half a length at the end of 5f at Coffs Harbour. Drawn out but a big run is anticipated. BARRON (8) had been racing well with three consecutive placings before last start managing only fifth over 5f at Grafton. Will drift back but wind up late. Will prove hard to hold out. HUDSON'S LENNY (11) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 5f at Kempsey two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. AMAYA'S SECRET (7) has not raced since her debut back on March 17 when she finished seventh over 5f at Grafton. Better for that run and can improve sharply.
