GOING: N

SKY RACING ACTIVE PACE 1720m

Track: FAST      

CROWN MOJO (7) has been racing well of late, placing the last two times he raced here. Came from this row and finished second at his latest appearance over this distance, beaten 4.7 metres. This looks his chance to break through. GIMME A REASON (10) was successful at Goulburn three starts ago and did a good job to come from this barrier for a 3.3m second here last week. Owns a decent record at this shorter distance. Major player. ROCKSIE ROCK (4) hasn't quite performed to market expectations of late but has been coming from the back row so could be an improver from this draw. RIPSTONE SNORTER (9) has come from similar draws to this at his last couple and hasn't been far from the placings. Can feature.
