Expecting a strong gallop with Bob The Horse and Zeyno taking up the running over Zeaction. Really keen to see ROCKETTE (10) again off the back of a dominant debut win at Pakenham over 1600m, doing so in good overall time and with plenty of scope to improve. Slightly up in trip will only suit better and her upside appeals greatly in this suitable contest. ZEACTION (8) ran a good race first up at Geelong when working home well for a narrow third. He's very consistent having only missed a place twice and with added fitness she should be right there again. BIT OF SHOOSH (2) is in a purple patch of form with two straight wins, too good from the back in easier company here last time. Have to respect again. QUELLO DORATO (7) was solid last time at Geelong and is in the each way mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rockette to win.
