Race comment
THE JANITOR (1) had a taste of the big time when a very close third to topliners Don Hugo and Leap To Fame when last seen in December's Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Comes into this fresh but races well that way and has been readied with two trial wins. Has won here a couple of times before and should get his chance from the ace draw. KINGMAN (8) drew poorly and had little luck but was still brave in the Hunter Cup. Back to the mile but has a decent record at it and strikes at 50 per cent here. Brilliant in a couple of big wins late last year and could roar back into winning form. RAKERO ROCKET (5) was gunned down as a hot favourite in last week's Newcastle Mile but had clocked terrific times in winning his previous two starts at this circuit and distance. Last-start Hunter Cup winner SWAYZEE (12) is better known over further and faces a task from the outside barrier but is all class. This is much tougher than what PINSEEKER (2) faced in his last-start win but he draws to be competitive.

Race comment
THE JANITOR (1) had a taste of the big time when a very close third to topliners Don Hugo and Leap To Fame when last seen in December's Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Comes into this fresh but races well that way and has been readied with two trial wins. Has won here a couple of times before and should get his chance from the ace draw. KINGMAN (8) drew poorly and had little luck but was still brave in the Hunter Cup. Back to the mile but has a decent record at it and strikes at 50 per cent here. Brilliant in a couple of big wins late last year and could roar back into winning form. RAKERO ROCKET (5) was gunned down as a hot favourite in last week's Newcastle Mile but had clocked terrific times in winning his previous two starts at this circuit and distance. Last-start Hunter Cup winner SWAYZEE (12) is better known over further and faces a task from the outside barrier but is all class. This is much tougher than what PINSEEKER (2) faced in his last-start win but he draws to be competitive.

Race comment
THE JANITOR (1) had a taste of the big time when a very close third to topliners Don Hugo and Leap To Fame when last seen in December's Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Comes into this fresh but races well that way and has been readied with two trial wins. Has won here a couple of times before and should get his chance from the ace draw. KINGMAN (8) drew poorly and had little luck but was still brave in the Hunter Cup. Back to the mile but has a decent record at it and strikes at 50 per cent here. Brilliant in a couple of big wins late last year and could roar back into winning form. RAKERO ROCKET (5) was gunned down as a hot favourite in last week's Newcastle Mile but had clocked terrific times in winning his previous two starts at this circuit and distance. Last-start Hunter Cup winner SWAYZEE (12) is better known over further and faces a task from the outside barrier but is all class. This is much tougher than what PINSEEKER (2) faced in his last-start win but he draws to be competitive.

Race comment
THE JANITOR (1) had a taste of the big time when a very close third to topliners Don Hugo and Leap To Fame when last seen in December's Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Comes into this fresh but races well that way and has been readied with two trial wins. Has won here a couple of times before and should get his chance from the ace draw. KINGMAN (8) drew poorly and had little luck but was still brave in the Hunter Cup. Back to the mile but has a decent record at it and strikes at 50 per cent here. Brilliant in a couple of big wins late last year and could roar back into winning form. RAKERO ROCKET (5) was gunned down as a hot favourite in last week's Newcastle Mile but had clocked terrific times in winning his previous two starts at this circuit and distance. Last-start Hunter Cup winner SWAYZEE (12) is better known over further and faces a task from the outside barrier but is all class. This is much tougher than what PINSEEKER (2) faced in his last-start win but he draws to be competitive.

Race comment
THE JANITOR (1) had a taste of the big time when a very close third to topliners Don Hugo and Leap To Fame when last seen in December's Blacks a Fake in Brisbane. Comes into this fresh but races well that way and has been readied with two trial wins. Has won here a couple of times before and should get his chance from the ace draw. KINGMAN (8) drew poorly and had little luck but was still brave in the Hunter Cup. Back to the mile but has a decent record at it and strikes at 50 per cent here. Brilliant in a couple of big wins late last year and could roar back into winning form. RAKERO ROCKET (5) was gunned down as a hot favourite in last week's Newcastle Mile but had clocked terrific times in winning his previous two starts at this circuit and distance. Last-start Hunter Cup winner SWAYZEE (12) is better known over further and faces a task from the outside barrier but is all class. This is much tougher than what PINSEEKER (2) faced in his last-start win but he draws to be competitive.
