Rock Revolution is the likely leader at a strong tempo. Interesting race with two newcomers to the area. ROCK REVOLUTION (1) is a former Waterhouse & Bott galloper with a decent record and only knows one pace - making the way up front. Very well placed in this company and if he handles the dirt will be tough to catch first try this circuit. ROSSANADO (3) was a fresh-up winner in what may well be a good form race. He beat much of the field in the previous race. Strips fitter and off the low draw will stalk the lead and go close again. FURY (2) is another former Victorian from the Maher yard and is a half-brother to Group 1 winner The Quarterback. Best figures stack up and well placed this class if on song. BEATIFICATION (6) has been going well without winning and finished fourth behind Rossanado in the latest. Can sneak into the finish. PREDICTING (4) is fitter for two runs in and is a likely improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Rock Revolution.
