EXOTHRILL (1) resumes from a lay-off of four months. Could only manage to finish sixth at the latest run over 6½f at Hawkesbury. Ran seventh in a recent trial at Hawkesbury. Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. DIAMOND RIDGE (7) has not appeared since she finished seventh over 5f at Tamworth on February 16. Race sets up well for her. BILLY BOWLEGG (10) is appearing for the first time. By Mandalong Ready and hails from the Gary Nickson stable. Comes here off a Warwick Farm trial. Expected to feature. SHOESMITH (4) was prominent in the early stages on debut last time out but weakened to finish eighth over 6f at Canberra. Further improved and the winkers come off for second up run. Has to be respected.
