Race comment
OVERVIEW: AMORE ROCK (2) showed a return to form with a close second behind Quiet Storm at Geelong, where he began well but couldn’t lead and ended up being in the one out and one back trail. He is a good chance of finding the lead from his ideal draw here and is capable of going one better. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (11) left a trailing position and motored around the field to park without cover when a big winner at Charlton on Sunday. This is a race of more depth but he is racing in peak form and is worth thought again. STEEL THE MOMENT (10) has been placed in six of his seven starts to date and produced a strong finish to down BUNDLE (4) at Ballarat last outing. He is a promising pacer and looms as one of the leading chances again. BUNDLE (4), PLAINS IN HEAVEN (5) and BETTER EXCLUSIVE (9) are all worth thought in multiple combinations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 10,11/ 4,9/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: AMORE ROCK (2) showed a return to form with a close second behind Quiet Storm at Geelong, where he began well but couldn’t lead and ended up being in the one out and one back trail. He is a good chance of finding the lead from his ideal draw here and is capable of going one better. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (11) left a trailing position and motored around the field to park without cover when a big winner at Charlton on Sunday. This is a race of more depth but he is racing in peak form and is worth thought again. STEEL THE MOMENT (10) has been placed in six of his seven starts to date and produced a strong finish to down BUNDLE (4) at Ballarat last outing. He is a promising pacer and looms as one of the leading chances again. BUNDLE (4), PLAINS IN HEAVEN (5) and BETTER EXCLUSIVE (9) are all worth thought in multiple combinations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 10,11/ 4,9/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: AMORE ROCK (2) showed a return to form with a close second behind Quiet Storm at Geelong, where he began well but couldn’t lead and ended up being in the one out and one back trail. He is a good chance of finding the lead from his ideal draw here and is capable of going one better. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (11) left a trailing position and motored around the field to park without cover when a big winner at Charlton on Sunday. This is a race of more depth but he is racing in peak form and is worth thought again. STEEL THE MOMENT (10) has been placed in six of his seven starts to date and produced a strong finish to down BUNDLE (4) at Ballarat last outing. He is a promising pacer and looms as one of the leading chances again. BUNDLE (4), PLAINS IN HEAVEN (5) and BETTER EXCLUSIVE (9) are all worth thought in multiple combinations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 10,11/ 4,9/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: AMORE ROCK (2) showed a return to form with a close second behind Quiet Storm at Geelong, where he began well but couldn’t lead and ended up being in the one out and one back trail. He is a good chance of finding the lead from his ideal draw here and is capable of going one better. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (11) left a trailing position and motored around the field to park without cover when a big winner at Charlton on Sunday. This is a race of more depth but he is racing in peak form and is worth thought again. STEEL THE MOMENT (10) has been placed in six of his seven starts to date and produced a strong finish to down BUNDLE (4) at Ballarat last outing. He is a promising pacer and looms as one of the leading chances again. BUNDLE (4), PLAINS IN HEAVEN (5) and BETTER EXCLUSIVE (9) are all worth thought in multiple combinations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 10,11/ 4,9/ 5
