Verdict

HARDPOINT (1) fought right to the wire first up. Showed a liking for the mile last start and won second up last prep. Progressive type. SCOUNDREL (5) has delivered three strong runs since resuming and fitness no issue. Despite a wide draw looks the real deal back in grade. MAISON LOUIS (6) lapped up the extra trip to win with authority second up. More depth here but advantaged by a soft draw. Can measure up. EXCLUSIVE ARTIST (7) has built a sharp record in just three starts and stays down in the weights. Can improve further. ILOVENEWS (4) tried hard in similar grade in latest and can run a strong mile.

The race before that 2nd of 8 at Nowra Cl1-Sw on February 9 over 1600m, on a slow track; 0.5 len behind Bernen Win with 57.5kg at $4.20. Impressed last start. No surprise if he was in the finish.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming won by 3 len at Taree Cge Mdn-Sw February 9 over 1300m defeating Scattering carrying 59kg at $2.45.

The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Newcastle Cl1 on February 15 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind Our Uptown Girl with 53kg at $13. This looks a stern test.

Having third race start. At very big odds at debut, 8th of 11 at Bathurst Mdn-Sw on January 31 over 1100m, 8 len behind Battle Hymn with 55.5kg at $51. Last start won by 1.3 len at Tuncurry Mdn March 1 over 1400m defeating Mad Harry with 56kg at $8.50. Obviously a lot harder and the ratings say she won't be competitive.
