Rodney Oh Rodney and Solaris Glow to take it up. RODNEY OH RODNEY (4) delivered the goods as expected when dropping in class and scoring at Pingrup 4 weeks ago. He has had a quiet Belmont trial since then, and Ryan Hill is normally hard to beat when he takes his team to the bush circuit. On top. WHO'S ME DADDY (1) is a locally trained gelding making his debut for a new trainer. He might need the run, but in this field, he can't be ruled out of a top 3 finish. REDWOOD RANSOM (6) is a 9-year-old maiden having his third start for a new trainer. He has looked a lot better in a couple of recent Geraldton trials, and with the blinkers back on, maybe he can show some form. BENFIN (2) did not fire fresh up at Geraldton and had an excuse after the run. He is better than that and is worth another chance. Include in all multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rodney Oh Rodney to win.
