On pace runners, 5, 7, 11, 12, 13, 16. OAKFIELD UTAH must be forgiven for an unplaced Rosehill effort when he was produced on a heavy surface. He's been given a freshen-up and stepping back in distance should not create a problem for him here. REPRISAL must be forgiven for an unplaced first up effort here last start when he endured a tough run on the day. COMMANDO JACK is resuming after winning a recent Bathurst trial when Zoe Hunt was aboard. He was a first up winner last preparation at his Mudgee home base and this race is also within his reach. NORTHERN BOOGIE looked the part last start at Coonabarabran when he was partnered by Ben Looker. He can maintain his form today with Ben retaining the ride. FICTION SOCIETY was a first up Grafton winner within this distance range last campaign. He begins another preparation today and after his recent Wyong trial, he must again be treated with great respect today, first up.
