Sean Tarry saddles Jordan (Pic – Candiese Lenferna)
Jordan from the Sean Tarry stable takes his place in Race 1 and he should give punters a good start to the day.
He was a beaten odds-on favourite in his last start over this distance last time. He returns from a 14-week break which would have done him the world of good.
The son of Silvano has ability and if finding the form of his debut effort, he should be the one to beat.
Trainer Weiho Marwing sends out There She Goes in Race 8 and she may be the horse to close off the meeting. She took on stronger company in her last start. Two of her four career victories have come over this distance.
Apprentice Trent Mayhew takes the 4kgs off her back which will assist her cause. She takes a drop-in class and can notch up her fifth career victory.
