BELIEVE SO (3) made it four minor placings on the trot when he just failed to pick up Baglioni over this distance at Tuncurry a fortnight ago. Likes racing here and goes well for McGuren who is back aboard. Gets his chance. SONIC TYCOON (4) made a mid-race move to lead then kept going to win with a bit of arrogance in a BM66 over this distance at Gunnedah recently. Tackles a better field but drops 4.5kgs so must be respected. MONTE OUTLANDER (6) appreciated the drop in grade when a close second over 1300m at Coffs Harbour last start. Needs the mile now so despite meeting a better field he is an each-way hope at the weights. BAGLIONI (1) won a similar race to this at Tuncurry 13 days ago - definite contender.
