Strong early tempo with Uncle Moonlight leading the way. EXOREALM (2) was in the money on debut over this course and distance two runs back then struggled in a stronger maiden at Wyong last start. Back in his right grade today and from a good gate is the testing material. WELCOME BACK (10) lines up for the 27th time. Battled on well for a close third here at today's journey three runs back but has been poor since. Each-way chance with the light weight. UNCLE MOONLIGHT (3) has not appeared since running a cheeky race over 1262m here at massive odds on debut in February. Gets a handful of gear changes for this return. Keep in mind. OUR LADY ROCKSTAR (8) maiden galloper in first campaign. Last start fourth over 1007m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Like Exorealm.
