|---|---|---|---|---|
|
ROSBERG (4) led and kept going when he scored last start by 3.4 metres at Geelong. Only draws one spot wider so should push forward again. Big chance to go back-to-back. DANCE AFFAIR (8) has been coming from wider draws on this row of late and has produced some decent efforts including a placing at Melton. Draws for a trail and finds a suitable assignment. RANGER RICK (6) couldn't get into the action in a tougher race last start but was going well prior and owns a good record at this distance. BIZZNESS CLASS (9) must be considered after he came from a similar barrier for third at Bendigo last week.
