From the inside gate Rock On Angel should be prominent along with Exceed Me. GAYLORD (1) lightly raced gelding held in high regard by the stable resuming. Last produced sixteen months ago when a fading sixth over 1400m at Randwick Kensington. Given the two searching trials for this and expected to play a leading role. ROCK ON ANGEL (8) another resuming from a lengthy break and now in the Stephen Lee yard. Battled on debut when third over 1000m at the Sunshine Coast. Fitted with the two trials and gets her chance with leading rider booked from the inside draw. TORQUE TI AMO (11) resuming after a lengthy break. Kept safe in betting on debut when sixth over this track and trip last September. Well placed with the claim and the two solid trials. Top three player. SIVO (18) comes here with race experience on her side from the good gate. Had no luck last start and sure to be about the money today with the tongue-tie on. SOURCES LINK (10) failed to fire in five starts in Victoria and resumes for the John Shelton yard. Back without a trial and keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gaylord in a tough contest.
