Track: Synthetic     Rail: True.  

They look to roll along early with Hollywood North and The Hanger Cat leading the charge. TONNEOFGRIT (4) is a former Victorian having his first run for the Stuart Kendrick stable. Resumes after finishing fifth at Caulfield at his last run 15 months ago. Not seen at the trials but goes well at this distance and looks well placed. LADY SHOTGUN (3) hasn't been too far from the placegetters in her last two runs. Has her share of talent and could prove hard to beat in this suitable race. THE HANGER CAT (5) is a distance specialist who was fourth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1100m at Wellington, beaten only 0.7 lengths. Could peak. AT WITZ END (1) was solid at his last outing when 3 lengths back at Doomben. Don't underestimate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tonneofgrit to strike fresh for the new yard.
