El Patron to take charge ahead of Saulok at a solid tempo. AGE OF GRACE (6) hit the line nicely first-up at Bunbury, clocking some nice splits late in the race when beaten 2.7L. Pike remains in the saddle as she rises to the mile second-up. Looks a good race for her off what we saw first-up and can land the knockout blow. OMERTA GRACE (2) was slowly away but turned in a strong effort when 3.9L off the winner last start at Bunbury off a long break. The form out of that race has already been franked and he's expected to have improved for that effort. Can land in a handy position and prove hard to hold out. SAULOK (5) may not have handled the Heavy track last start at Belmont but looks an improver third-up out to the mile. The claim of Nottle gets him in nicely at the weights and he'll give them something to chase from up front. EL PATRON (1) drops right back in grade today and rates a leading chance on his recent form. MOLLY'S MY PAL (8) is racing well and is not to be discounted on recent form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Age Of Grace finds the right race.
