Goulburn trainer Tash Burleigh will make a rare appearance at Wyong on Thursday when she saddles up Pokerjack ($2.40 favourite on TAB), her only runner on the day, in the Ainsworth Leisure Group Maiden Plate (1100m). The four-year-old has been runner-up in his only two starts this preparation at Hawkesbury and Kembla and he is well placed after in-form apprentice Amy McLucas claims 3kg.

Track Heavy 10 and rail out 4m from 1350m to 1000m & 1m the remainder.

The Polytrack Provincial-Midway Championships Wild Card run at Newcastle on Thursday is the last chance for horses to qualify for the $500,000 Final at Royal Randwick on Saturday week (April 9).
