MISS PALLADIUM (6) finished second last time over 6½f at Mackay to make it three minor placings from five career runs. Has been in the frame at all two runs over this trip. Among the chances. AIN'T NOBODY (2) finished sixth when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten only 1.2 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MOMENT OF TRUTH (3) is a four-year-old mare who is having her first run for the Kerrod Smyth barn. Finished off last campaign with a fourth at Echuca five months ago. Fitter for placing in a Rockhampton trial and looks well placed. Leading player expected to feature. ONE PERCENT (1) ran below expectations last start, finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths at this track over 7½f. Worth another chance.
