Looks a keen contest with Rock Ya and Amahni's Girl pressing for the lead with Ring Bearer and La Rosetta close at hand. MAKE A CALL (2) has been about the mark of late without winning in better races than this. Last appeared in a BM70 four back and recorded a barnstorming win at Doomben with 1kg more. Won't spend a cent from the draw and this looks his ideal assignment. ROCK YA (7) shared the lead into the lane but lacked the kick required and was beaten just under two lengths over the mile here a fortnight ago. Fitter for two runs back from a spell and getting out to today's journey is the key to his chances. ABSOLUTE SUNSHINE (3) dug deep to get up for third at the Gold Coast last time out. Not sure coming back in trip is ideal but he is honest and should be thereabouts. RING BEARER (6) has a fine record at today's distance and is well treated after the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Make A Call to win.
