Race comment
OVERVIEW: STEEL SCREENS (2) settled midfield, was held up for a run at a vital stage and angled out wide on the track when he ran home well for sixth (4m) in the Gordon Rothacker Memorial at Melton last outing. He finished fast for second in his heat of that series and he should go well under these conditions. ZOLIVER (7) was caught wide in the early stages, progressed forward to race without cover at the 1200m and finished fifth (3.5m) at Melton last outing. He finished fast from midfield to win in a slick mile rate of 1.53.6 prior and he looms as one of the leading chances again but the draw is a concern. FRANCO JOLTO (4) possesses early speed and is racing in exceptional form. He copped plenty of pressure when leading and finish fifth behind ZOLIVER (7) in a heat of the Gordon Rothacker Memorial then took a trail, used the sprint lane and missed out narrowly in the final. He is likely to go forward at the start but whether or not he can head off the bold front running pacer EXPLICIT CASTLE (3) is crucial to his winning chances. RADIUS (1) won from behind the leader at Melton last week and is drawn to receive a similar run from the pole position. KEAYANG DA VINCI (8) made up a lot of ground at his latest fifth and is not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2,7/ 4/ 3,8/ 1,6/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: STEEL SCREENS (2) settled midfield, was held up for a run at a vital stage and angled out wide on the track when he ran home well for sixth (4m) in the Gordon Rothacker Memorial at Melton last outing. He finished fast for second in his heat of that series and he should go well under these conditions. ZOLIVER (7) was caught wide in the early stages, progressed forward to race without cover at the 1200m and finished fifth (3.5m) at Melton last outing. He finished fast from midfield to win in a slick mile rate of 1.53.6 prior and he looms as one of the leading chances again but the draw is a concern. FRANCO JOLTO (4) possesses early speed and is racing in exceptional form. He copped plenty of pressure when leading and finish fifth behind ZOLIVER (7) in a heat of the Gordon Rothacker Memorial then took a trail, used the sprint lane and missed out narrowly in the final. He is likely to go forward at the start but whether or not he can head off the bold front running pacer EXPLICIT CASTLE (3) is crucial to his winning chances. RADIUS (1) won from behind the leader at Melton last week and is drawn to receive a similar run from the pole position. KEAYANG DA VINCI (8) made up a lot of ground at his latest fifth and is not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2,7/ 4/ 3,8/ 1,6/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: STEEL SCREENS (2) settled midfield, was held up for a run at a vital stage and angled out wide on the track when he ran home well for sixth (4m) in the Gordon Rothacker Memorial at Melton last outing. He finished fast for second in his heat of that series and he should go well under these conditions. ZOLIVER (7) was caught wide in the early stages, progressed forward to race without cover at the 1200m and finished fifth (3.5m) at Melton last outing. He finished fast from midfield to win in a slick mile rate of 1.53.6 prior and he looms as one of the leading chances again but the draw is a concern. FRANCO JOLTO (4) possesses early speed and is racing in exceptional form. He copped plenty of pressure when leading and finish fifth behind ZOLIVER (7) in a heat of the Gordon Rothacker Memorial then took a trail, used the sprint lane and missed out narrowly in the final. He is likely to go forward at the start but whether or not he can head off the bold front running pacer EXPLICIT CASTLE (3) is crucial to his winning chances. RADIUS (1) won from behind the leader at Melton last week and is drawn to receive a similar run from the pole position. KEAYANG DA VINCI (8) made up a lot of ground at his latest fifth and is not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2,7/ 4/ 3,8/ 1,6/ 5
