REWARD WITH A ROSE (9) was safely held when 14th last start over 6f at Moruya, beaten 10 lengths. That followed a good when resuming win at Sapphire Coast. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. ALL ASTERN (3) was in the money two starts back at Albury but was unable to repeat the effort last time when eighth, beaten 8 lengths, at Canberra Acton over 6f87yards. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she deserves another chance. WHITE TIGHTS (12) showed early speed from an outside draw and held a forward position before fading to finish fourth, beaten 2.5 lengths, last start over 6½f at Wagga. Will push forward and is among the chances. YOU WISH (6) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing fifth over 6f at Canberra Acton last start. Coriah Keatings has registered two minor placings when on board. Deserves respect.
