MONTE VEEBEE (3) frustrating gelding who comes here third up on his home track. Blinkers come off and the winkers go on after disappointing when second over 1175m at Albury. Gets map favours again and no excuses today. ELEGANT ARTIST (5) comes here with a big fitness edge over most of these fifth up. Up sharply in trip when found wanting late to run fourth over 1600m at Wyong. Was just under a month between runs at the latest and will take catching here. VILLA CASTINA (12) nice debut in a decent race when gripping on late to finish fifth over 1400m at this track. Likely to sit off the speed and produce late. Each way. COSTABIT (11) blinkers and lugging bit go on for this in an attempt to spark him up after running a poor seventh over 1400m at this track. Finds an easier assignment and expect to see him a little closer in the run. Keep safe.
