PINKY ROCKS (1) scored by 2.5 lengths last time (25.63) in a Grade 6 over 455m at this track. Has already won out of this draw. Rates on top and should go close. GRAND PERFECTION (2) hit the ground running from an outside draw with a fast early split, holding on for a minor placing when second and beaten 1.3 lengths at this track over 395m in 22.26. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Leading chance. VELARIS (5) ran a handy 22.60 when filling a minor placing over 400m at Gawler last start. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. GOLD BENZ (7) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last five starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 400m at Gawler beaten 3.5 lengths (22.60) behind Diogo Keeping in a Grade 5 on March 8. Has been thereabouts of late and is among the chances.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4 length fourth (22.45) over 395m at this track. Has ability and worth including.

Returns from a 12 weeks spell after being tipped out on the back of a minor placing (30.95) over 530m at Angle Park Night. Placed at both tries fresh. Others make more appeal.
