Hawsbery trainer Warwick Hailes' attention to detail hopefully will bring him a just reward on his home track tomorrow.

In fact, Hailes nominated the mare for three races on consecutive days - including Canterbury today and Wyong on Friday. But he told Remlaps Jewel's managing part-owner Wayne Palmer that he would keep an eye on the Hawkesbury event in case nominations fell short and were extended. And that is exactly what happened.
