One Kind has good gate speed and can lead from the inside gate. BOJANGLES (2) classy gelding returning from a four-month break. Won two-in-a-row last time in before jumping in grade when a plugging sixth in the LR Gosford Guineas over 1200m last December. Not asked to do much when sixth in a trial at Beaumont (Newcastle) over 1000m recently. Expected to sprint well fresh. MR ROCK IT (4) consistent gelding with his hoof on the till. Chased hard late when second over 1008m at the Sapphire Coast on April 5. This stronger but deserves his chance here. ROADWAY BOUNCER (3) strong through the line when covered ground late to score a 1.75 len victory here over 1100m on March 28. Looks up to this despite drawing out. SOOBOOCO (12) set to peak third-up after sitting on the speed with the 57kg when fourth over 1200m at Newcastle on April 6. Claim helps again from the good gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 2,4,3,12.
