SIPPITY SIP (5) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish fourth over 6¼f at Gunnedah. Likely to measure up. COTTON CAPER (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Goondiwindi, beaten 2.5 lengths into fifth after being in contention on the bend. Going up a level this time but she deserves another chance. MINIMAL (3) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 6f at Texas. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. VOULAIT (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 4½f at Texas, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
