Drift Net and Silentsar look to take it up. SACRED ROCKS (4) classy mare who can't draw a decent gate. Snagged back early and produced good closing splits when an unlucky second to Brave One over 1400m at Rosehill. Will appreciate the weight relief with Roper's claim, and out wide could be the right place to be at that stage of the day. DRIFT NET (9) returns from a forty-two-day let-up from the low draw. Kept up to the mark with a 1000m trial at Hawkesbury with winning rider back aboard. Anywhere near her best can win this. LITTLE COINTREAU (5) has been a model of consistency this campaign and has his first start at Randwick. On the quick backup after failing to match it with King Of Roseau over this trip at Rosehill last Saturday. Drops in grade and gets her chance. UNSTOPABULL (6) frustrating gelding who should relish the extra ground on the quick turnaround. Lloyd sticks and no shock to see him race a little closer. Keep safe. SILENTSAR (8) strips fitter and will roll forward with the drop in weight. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sacred Rocks to swoop late.
