Verdict

PRINCE RUPERT (5) peaks off three narrow defeats and maps for a soft run. He carries 7lbs less and on a 7-day return will take beating. SOURCES LINK (4) is a danger building on the Kempsey placing. The former Victorian has plenty in the tank and may control the race from the inside barrier. MIDNIGHT RABBLE (3) has trialled since the distant placing at Grafton. He has to find a lot more to win, but should be around the mark. HIGHLAND HUSTLE (7) resumes and has switched from a Sydney barn. She will race over further, but gets in light and the blinkers are on again. She is likely to be running into it.
