Verdict

TRIPTOLEMUS (1) led from the get-go and never looked in danger last start in a similar race to this at Moruya. Lightly raced four-year-old building an impressive record. Open to further improvement at the fourth run of the prep and will be very hard to stop. ROCKET RUDEE (2) closed hard to get the cash first-up over 1200m at Narrandera then a few things went wrong in a Rosehill Highway last start so forget that run. Given a freshen up and is back in his right race today. BIG OPINION (4) caught the eye when beaten under a length over 1175m at Albury two back. Travelled to Rosehill for a Highway most recently and never got warm. Beautifully in after the claim and this race looks a much better fit. ROONAMI (7) made it three wins from her last five when she cruised to victory over this distance at Bathurst a fortnight ago. Up in grade but going too well to rule out. HELLBERG (5) has won three from four at Corowa and is fitter for two runs back from a spell - right in the mix.

Recent form sound. Most recently favourite; won by 2.5 len at Moruya on August 16 over 1425m in the wet defeating Go Gazza with 59kg at $2.70. The race before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd in a small field in a Bm74 at Sapphire Coast on July 26 over 1410m, slow going 1.0 len behind Lightning Speed with 55kg at $6.50. Progressing impressively this time in work and will take catching again.

Dual acceptor. At the latest run ran second last of 16 in a Highway-C3 at Rosehill on August 15 over 1300m, slow going 7 len behind Lyon with 55kg at $51. Before that 3rd of 10 in a Bm66 at Albury on July 27 over 1175m, on heavy track; 0.8 len behind Justenuffsplash carrying 59kg at $8.50. Great chance to make amends.

He is resuming after a nine weeks break. Not seen since winning to post a big 3 len win. Albury Mdn-Sw June 29 over 1500m in the wet defeating Give Her Time carrying 59kg at $2.30. On debut fourth of 12 at Wagga Super Mdn April 19 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Zou Force with 58.5kg at $10. Lightly raced four-year-old who has his share of talent but will be better following this outing.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 12 in a Bm56 at Ballarat Synthetic on July 27 over 1200m, 2 len behind Firerated carrying 62.5kg at $21. Second run from a spell 5th of 8 in a Bm56 at Ballarat Synthetic on August 11 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Call Me Maura with 62.5kg at $8. Not far away last start. Finds a nice race and is worth including.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up won by 0.6 len at Narrandera on July 12 over 1200m in soft going defeating Seasmoke carrying 59kg at $7.50. Last start ran second last of 15 in a Highway-C3 at Rosehill on August 1 over 1200m, on a slow track; 10 len behind Wayburn carrying 56.5kg at $101. Genuine hope back in a more suitable contest.

Second run back. Comes off a 55-day let-up. First-up after two months 7th of 11 in a Bm66 at Muswellbrook on July 7 over 1280m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Turbulent carrying 59.5kg at $31. Previously second-up was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a neck at Mudgee on February 21 over 1400m on a soft track defeating The Manager with 55kg at $17. Looks a fair way off peak form so others are preferred.

Most recently raced on the pace before fading 9th of 12 in a Ctry Bm58 at Nowra on August 10 over 1400m, slow going 2.25 len behind Diamond Frost with 59kg at $15. The run before that 8th of 12 in a Ctry Bm58 at Goulburn on July 17 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind The Eyes Have It with 59.5kg at $13. Preferred in something easier.
