GOING: N

HYGAIN RELEASE PACE (SKY 1) 1800m

Track: GOOD      

ROCK ON NIFTY (2) has not raced for four-and-a-half months. Looks forward enough for this return after a minor placing in a recent trial. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. GLOBAL GEM (6) ran eighth last start at Port Pirie over 1609m, beaten 25 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expect her to be prominent. PLUTUS (1) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1800m at this track last time out. Each way claims from this perfect gate. THE GAME (3) was not a factor last start but will be ready to peak third-up from a spell from a nice draw. Include in all computers.

Resuming after four-and-a-half months off the scene. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into seventh after being restrained, behind The Reginator at this track over 1800m in a No NR on December 13 at $8. Has the ability to play a major role.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten this track over 1800m, 6 days ago and two back 6th (Fr4) over 1800m after showing early pace at this track beaten 30 m by Apology Accepted (2:13.80) on April 15 at $101. Hard to recommend him on recent form.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was restrained when 8th (Fr5) over 1609m after being wide early at Port Pirie beaten 25 m by Tommy Mach (1:58.10) on April 13 at $14. The run previous was restrained when 5th (Fr4) over 1800m at this track, beaten 12 m by Fly The Banner (2:13.10) in 3yo on April 9 at $26. Expecting better things this time around.
