ELASTANE MISS (7) battled on well to hold second last start over 1000m at Albury, beaten 0.7 lengths when resuming. In a suitable race and can play a major role. VAINSTREAM (4) wound up strongly in the run home last start to register an impressive win over 1065m at Wagga Riverside. Winning rider Glenn Cahill stays aboard. Leading contender. ALL ASTERN (2) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1000m at Queanbeyan, getting home by a neck. Winning rider Caitlin Sinclair retains the mount. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LET'S GO BRANDON (3) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1000m at Goulburn, scoring by 1.75 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Dale Cole was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the mount. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
