KEEN TO BEGIN

STEVEN HARDY · ISABEL JESSOP · 4yo Mare

Returns from a four-month break after a debut at Gold Coast where she jumped awkwardly, raced wide throughout and was beaten just over six lengths while unwanted in the market. That run is forgivable to a degree, and the easy Toowoomba Inner Track trial win is a useful readiness pointer. Debut had excuses and a placing is within reach.
