RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: SOLS ME NAME (8) doesn’t have the best numerical form, but he was racing the top horses in his age group last year as a two-year-old. On one occasion he was beaten only 15.2 metres when second behind Loucasso in a $150,000 race. He is first up but has trialled well. ROCKNLENA (10) was ultra-consistent last season after joining the John Justice stable. She is first up this year and has an awkward barrier, but if she gets luck she is an each-way chance. ZOOM ZOOM BOOM (4) is an interesting runner whose career has been interrupted. He showed promise as a two-year-old in 2023 but has only had two starts since, including a recent first-up run where he was checked and broke. He will take improvement from that run, but clearly has ability for connections to have brought him back after time on the sidelines. ARZALI ROCKSTAR (1) was well beaten last start, but her three runs prior showed promise. She has enough gate speed to map into a suitable position from barrier one. BACK: SOLS ME NAME (8) – 3 units (win)
