Time To Tango backs up after finishing 10 of 13/1000 m at Muswellbrook a week ago finishing 10.4 lengths behind Rekindled Force and Kettering in a time 56.93.
Should be an improver off her first-up run, though goes up a kilo from that outing and at odds of 126 to 1 a win would surprise.

Last time out the five-year-old mare was seen racing at Cessnock in a class 1/900 m a fortnight ago, arriving third of eight arriving behind Hammoon Bridge and D’Last Za.
She doesn’t win out of turn, but is likely to box seat from a good alley, she drops in weight from her last outing, & has placed at the track, & won and placed at the distance.
An 18-1 chance in this.
