On pace runners, 1, 4, 6, 7. HAMMOON SENSATION was resuming when he overcame a wide gate to score at Rosehill three weeks ago. He's proven second up and he should have more to offer when he now returns to Dubbo where he was a winner at his only previous run in the track. ALABAMA BLITZ was given a stable change before blinkers were removed after a fifty-five day break last start at Scone when she was too good for all except a next start winner (Nova Centauri) on the same Scone circuit. ALABAMA BLITZ still has scope to improve. MICRO MIKKI was attempting a significant distance rise when his Coonamble effort was full of merit last start over this journey. He can only now present race-fitter for 1600m. HIBIKI HARMONY must not be harshly judged for finishing unplaced at Tamworth last start. There were excuses on the day. POISEN POINT handed in quick closing sectionals to score at Coonamble and he shouldn't be underestimated when he tackles a significant distance rise here at home, second up. EGYPTOLOGIST presents third up with a gear change made (winkers off) and he did enough at Coonamble last start to be treated respectfully here.
