Verdict

THINK WE'RE THERE (5) good effort two back at Newcastle then missed the kick and had to be ridden against the usual pattern last start when well back over 1 5/16m at Wyong. Is a winner at this trip and if Clark can give him a good ride another win is on the cards. LENNOX (1) returned with a game win in a Class 1 over the mile at Gosford last time out. Carries the same weight today after Roper's claim. Boasts excellent second-up stats so expect that good form to continue. WINNING POINT (6) started at cricket score odds but almost landed a minor prize over 1 ³/16m at Canterbury recently. It has been a long dry spell but that last run was encouraging. CONTALDO (2) led but couldn't hold out Lennox at Gosford last start. Likely leader again and Nash will get the best out of him. ZIZETTE (8) ran a better race last time out and might be ready to show something after four runs back.
