RAIDING (2) settled well back when 6 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1m2 1/2f at Orange last start, a less impressive effort than her fourth at this track the run before. The engagement of Siena Grima is a positive move. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. JOSHUA (4) finished fourth last time out over 1m2 1/2f at Orange, beaten 5.5 lengths. Has sound form here including a win and two minor placings from five starts. Looms large. HOT GOSPEL (6) doesn't win out of turn but was in the finish last time when beaten 0.6 lengths into third over 1m1 1/4f at Mudgee. Has a decent record at this track. One of the contenders. LADY TINO (1) was beaten 6 lengths into fifth in a 1m2 1/2f contest at Orange last time out. No surprise to see her in contention.
