Expecting we are on a downgraded Soft track as the forecast says there is a good chance that rain will fall from late on Wednesday and right through Thursday. Perhaps as much as 20mm? We have to wait and see in that regard. UPDATE: they got about 2mm so we are holding strong on a Good 4 and will work on that now. CHEVAL DE BOIS was $21 to $11 before his Hawkesbury debut. That was on dry and this could be very different but you had to like the way he finished off at 1300m. PEPPERINA missed the kick on debut but wound up well at the finish and even though this is a big jump up from 1200m it could be just what she's after. QUESTIONABLE lifted her game pretty clearly down the road at Muswellbrook last time. JOIKA started $4 in the same race but pulled up with cardiac arrhythmia. Expect she could bounce back quickly? She did show promise with her debut finish. BOHEMIAN ART just battled last start but she's one that has performed well on rain-affected. SEA ME DANCE into another new stable and her third state (after Vic and QLD).
