On pace runners, 3, 4, 8, 9. MAGIC MERLIN was produced here at home over this distance last start when he beat home a subsequent start Tamworth winner. He's been kept fresh since, he's raced well fresh before and he can do so again today. THINK BACK finished unplaced but she was anything but disgraced when she attempted to lead throughout last start at Rosehill. Switching to home base aids her cause today. NIELSEN PARK handed in quick closing sectionals to score over this distance last start at Moree. He was produced fifth up in his first campaign since a stable change and he can maintain his form when he now makes a Scone debut. SUPREME STATEMENT caused his own problems with a poor getaway in a Tamworth race that wasn't run to suit last start. Stepping up from 1400m can now be a plus with winkers added to his gear. SNITZENEGGER wasn't disgraced first up at Muswellbrook and he will have scope to improve here with that latest effort behind him.
