EXTRA HANDS (9) is still a maiden after eight starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 6f at Goulburn following a minor placing at Albury over 7½f the run prior. This looks her chance to break through. DIVINE SPARK (4) made a strong late bid but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 7f at this track. Will derive great benefit from recent racing. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. MCTOMINAY (1) is yet to break through after eight starts but not far off a win. Placed in a then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 7f at this track. Shapes well and is among the main hopes. AQUILINO (7) again failed to feature last start, finishing 13th and beaten 18 lengths over 7f at Randwick. Faces a far less daunting assignment this time. Has to be respected in this company.
