BLOOMTIME (3) was well in commission when resuming last start over 5f130yards at Launceston but could only manage fifth, although only 2.5 lengths from the winner. Will appreciate a drop in grade. Among the leading chances in this company. NEED TO THINK (4) had a bit on her rivals last time out, scoring an impressive 3 lengths maiden win over 6f at Hobart. Re-unites with Jackson Radley who was on board last start. No reason she cannot get the job done again. SKY EAGLE (7) ran below expectations last time at Hobart, finishing tenth and beaten 29 lengths starting at 5/2. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ROYAL SCOTCH (9) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 18 when beaten 4 lengths into eighth at Launceston over 7f21yards after she gave away a big start. Can feature in the finish.
