Gypsy Power should lead at a keen tempo. ROTHGATE (5) has a good third up record and indicated a win was imminent when a sound third over 1100m at Mudgee. Gets weight relief again and capable of taking up a position with some cover. Goes close. EAST HARLEM (14) has his hoof on the till after finishing runner up at his last three outings. Up in grade when running on late to finish second behind So You Pence over 1200m at Goulburn. Gets weight relief with the claim and has each way prospects. D'ARPANO (13) strips fitter after chasing hard at her second run back when second over 1000m at Dubbo with the 60.5kg. Placed this track and trip and expected to take a hand in the finish. DIVINE SINNER (1) anchored with the big weight when a gritty third over 1000m at Orange on April 11. Up in trip and will prove hard to hold out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rothgate to win.
