Lots of speed predominantly from Passeggiata, Jambalaya and Mogo Magic. JEDIBEEL (3) was well fancied on resumption when a slick winner over 1000m at Randwick Kensington in easier grade on April 25. Schiller sticks and no surprise to see him go through his grades this preparation. STORM THE RAMPARTS (7) stalked the speed on resumption but no match late when second to JEDIBEEL over 1000m at Randwick Kensington. Goes just as well second-up and gets map favours from the good draw. Can turn the tables here. OUR BELLAGIO MISS (4) returns from a 49 day let-up. Drifted back and outclassed when 13th in the G3 B/Day Card over 1200m at Rosehill on March 23. This is her pet trip and can turn it around in the conditions. MARKWELL DREAMER (12) holding his form well in easier company and drops 12kg for this after finishing a close up second over this trip at Muswellbrook in BM66 grade on May 3. Goes into the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,7,4,12.
