HELL TO PAY (4) racing in career best form and had genuine excuses when a disappointing seventh from the awkward gate over 1400m at this track. Was three weeks between runs on that occasion and gets a much better set up with the 3kg claim. SISTER DAAE (11) dragged back from the outside gate and was never a winning prospect when chipping away late to run sixth over 1300m here. Desperate for the 1500m now and the tempo suits. Each way player. HOPPER (7) fifth up for this and will relish the firmer surface after disappointing in the heavy (9) going when sixth over 1600m at Warwick Farm. Will go back from the gate and close strongly. DON'T FORGET JACK (1) gone to a new level this prep and should have little trouble running the 1500m out. Can race a little closer from the draw with the claim. Top three chance. AMUSING (12) disappointed second up after striking some trouble in the straight when eleventh over 1300m here in BM72 class. Best form can see her take a hand in the finish.
