APACHE JACK (5) is a nine-start maiden who is well and truly overdue, finishing third at Scone over 6f last time out after he made late inroads. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HARSH MISTRESS (8) ran a little below her best last start when ninth over 6f at Quirindi. May appreciate the longer journey this time. Shannen Llewellyn has registered two minor placings when on board. Among the leading chances. LINFORD (11) returned from a lay-off a week-and-a-half ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth over 6f at Quirindi. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HALLE BEE (4) was in contention on the turn and finished second last time over 7¼f at Quirindi, beaten a long neck. Will trim down following recent racing. Nicely placed to run well again.
