BETTORS HOPE (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 9 metres from the winner in fifth over 1760m at Coolamon. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. PLATINUM JEWEL (5) comes here following a fourth behind Eye Keep Smiling at Listed level a week-and-a-half ago over 2270m at Riverina Paceway. A return to form is on the cards. A LIL BIT OF LOVE (1) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 2060m at Forbes. No reason the run cannot continue. ERIC THE KICKER (4) is better than his first-up seventh over 1730m at this track two weeks ago.
