GOING: F

YIRRIBEE STUD PACE 1740m

Track: FAST      

ROCKETON (4) made it three wins in succession last time out, getting home by 3 metres over 1758m at Leeton. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. LEAVEAMESSAGE (9) finished third last start in a Listed feature won by Mac Bon over 1609m at Newcastle, beaten 7 metres. Top-shelf three-year-old gelding who is nicely placed to return in style. LACHIES DELIGHT (8) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 5 metres at Leeton over 1758m. Top-three contender. HEAVENS BADGIRL (3) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fourth at Coolamon over 1760m. May trouble the judge.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 8th (Fr6) over 1690m after racing wide at Kilmore was 11th-18.9 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Popcornfriday (2:01.60) in NR 50 to 55 on May 1 at $9.

Rates highly and can bounce back.
