OVERVIEW: RAGING WHITEBAIT (10) is resuming since a sixth in the Wedderburn Cup back in January but he appeared to be very sharp at his latest Melton trial victory. He has been impressive in winning four of his five starts since coming from New Zealand and is sure to make his presence felt. BLAKE BOLAC (8) produced a huge run after enduring a tough trip when second behind Tango Tara in a mile rate of 1.51.5 three starts ago. He was freshened after a disappointing twelfth in the Hamilton Cup and did very well when a close second behind My Uncle Stan at his latest attempt so he must be respected. ROCKANDANCE (7) performed admirably in his two starts during the Miracle Mile Carnival at Menangle and is worth thought despite the extreme draw. REPELLING (1) ran a brave second behind the star pacer Always Hot at Melton two starts ago then endured a tough trip at his latest sixth. He is ideally drawn and should give a bold showing. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 3,7 RATINGS: 10/ 8/ 1,7/ 3,4,5,9

OVERVIEW: RAGING WHITEBAIT (10) is resuming since a sixth in the Wedderburn Cup back in January but he appeared to be very sharp at his latest Melton trial victory. He has been impressive in winning four of his five starts since coming from New Zealand and is sure to make his presence felt. BLAKE BOLAC (8) produced a huge run after enduring a tough trip when second behind Tango Tara in a mile rate of 1.51.5 three starts ago. He was freshened after a disappointing twelfth in the Hamilton Cup and did very well when a close second behind My Uncle Stan at his latest attempt so he must be respected. ROCKANDANCE (7) performed admirably in his two starts during the Miracle Mile Carnival at Menangle and is worth thought despite the extreme draw. REPELLING (1) ran a brave second behind the star pacer Always Hot at Melton two starts ago then endured a tough trip at his latest sixth. He is ideally drawn and should give a bold showing.

OVERVIEW: RAGING WHITEBAIT (10) is resuming since a sixth in the Wedderburn Cup back in January but he appeared to be very sharp at his latest Melton trial victory. He has been impressive in winning four of his five starts since coming from New Zealand and is sure to make his presence felt. BLAKE BOLAC (8) produced a huge run after enduring a tough trip when second behind Tango Tara in a mile rate of 1.51.5 three starts ago. He was freshened after a disappointing twelfth in the Hamilton Cup and did very well when a close second behind My Uncle Stan at his latest attempt so he must be respected. ROCKANDANCE (7) performed admirably in his two starts during the Miracle Mile Carnival at Menangle and is worth thought despite the extreme draw. REPELLING (1) ran a brave second behind the star pacer Always Hot at Melton two starts ago then endured a tough trip at his latest sixth. He is ideally drawn and should give a bold showing.
