GOING: G(4)

INGLIS SIRES' 1400m

Track: Soft 5   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.43)  

Expecting a strong gallop with Vinrock and Bellazaine taking up the running over Prestige Forever. VINROCK (3) exciting Matt Laurie-trained colt undefeated in two starts. Big jump in grade when crushing his rivals with an all-the-way win over 1400m in the G2 VRC Sires' Produce Stakes at Flemington on March 8. Since fitted with a solid 1050m trial placing at Randwick. Fresh horse on the scene capable of causing an upset. WODETON (2) has the profile of a colt who will relish this trip and further. Game effort in the G1 Golden Slipper when drifting back and striking trouble in the straight to finish a narrow second at Rosehill. Ryan Moore takes the ride and look for him swooping late. RIVELLINO (1) away slowly and forced to chase hard throughout when a game fourth over 1200m in the G1 Golden Slipper. Bowman back to ride and worth noting he's undefeated here. BELLAZAINE (10) stamped urgent from the wide draw when leading them into the straight before fading to finish eighth over 1200m in the G1 Golden Slipper. Minor claims. PRESTIGE FOREVER (4) nice colt with upside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Vinrock to salute.
