Keen battle for the lead with Jillaroo, Kairos Louie and More Love in advance of Watermelon and Cold One.
USA import JILLAROO (14) was too bad to be true at the latest effort but go on the solid win over this track and trip two back. Has been given a bit of a freshen up since that last-start failure and a bounce back to form would not surprise. ROCK HARD LOVE (5) looked good saluting at the Gold Coast two back before just running into one better at Eagle Farm last time out. Gets Maloney on board and looms as the main danger. HEMAN (2) is yet to miss the top two in three runs here, draws low and gets 3kg off with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. CHAYSE 'N' ADAM (12) got the job done last start and will have derived a bunch of confidence from that victory. Can go right on with it. KAIROS LOUIE (18) is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and may earn some minor money. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Jillaroo.
