Looking to cap off solid form is Taipan Legend, who owns five placings from 14 starts, including a placing at Tamworth last time out.

The four-year-old son of Written Tycoon has been rock-solid in betting throughout the week, and he doesn’t need to improve to beat this field.

Boasting a late-start win is Don Quixote, who scored at Quirindi by a half-length last time out.

The six-year-old son of Pierro is only a three-time winner throughout his career, but he has confidence levels up now.

Dropping in weight helps and he could provide punters with each-way value.

Stake: 2 Units
