A couple of promising Waller gallopers return here over 1500m in a race without much tempo. SWEET DEAL, LOVE SHACK BABY and HERE TO THERE possible contenders for racing on the pace, GIRL TUESDAY capable of moving up if she jumps OK (tempo forecast: STEADY). GIRL TUESDAY showed real class in her first prep to win all four starts, ridden ugly in her latest and still holding on over 1800m. She handles all conditions, had two solid trials into this and her Rosehill win on SOFT was dynamic. SEAGLASS (gelded) the other first-upper for Waller, coming off just the one trial he'll need to jump well from the inside barrier to figure. SMARTEDGE right in this race with similar form ratings to those two and already up-and-running this prep, he was good on the Gold Coast and looks like a possible wet tracker (tough-looking Smart Missile gelding that came close 2nd to D'Argento on soft). All three of those key chances could jump slow from the barriers so positions will be key. SWEET DEAL (can she bounce back?) and LOVE SHACK BABY (can be bring form to Rosehill?) capable. HERE TO THERE the best roughie. [updated 8:22am]
