ALL HUNKY DORY (1) recorded a strong maiden win over 1m at this track last time, getting there by 1.1 lengths. Looks well placed and he is likely to feature in the finish again. IDOL SHOT (3) was ridden quietly then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished one length away in fifth last time out over 6½f at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Solid winning chance. YAMBA'S GIRL (5) is backing up five days after finishing eighth over 6f87yards at Muswellbrook. No surprise to see her back in form this time. PREFER TO BE READY (7) produced a better run last start, beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 7¼f at Quirindi. Well placed to make amends.
