Strong early tempo with Rock In Wonder and Desert Edge leading the way. SAVVY RULER (8) was too good last time out when flying late to score by 0.7L. Likely to get back again from the barrier, but she was very impressive last time and the splits were strong. Out in trip suits now and she can go back-to-back. ROCK IN WONDER (1) gets the blinkers on again today after failing to fire when up on the speed last time out at Belmont. Can sit up on the speed again from a good draw today and with Riordan's claim, he'll be tough to run down. REDRYE (6) is racing in top order, missing by 1.5L last time out when jumping favourite in a similar race. Maps better this time and can feature with no weight on her back. BARECOVE ROCK (5) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back to his best. ROYAL TROOPER (4) is in a similar boat and he can bounce back to his best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Savvy Ruler can get the job done again.
