Shortest win price
Sistine Tunnel (11)
3.50
Welcome to Mornington for the Rmbl Investments Rising Stars Race, a 1200m Benchmark 56 clash on a good four surface under overcast skies. The win market lines up with Bliss Bomb sitting at the head of affairs, closely followed by Marilyn's Edge, Sistine Tunnel, and Arabian Myth in the early order. The numbers say we are set for a competitive battle over the 1200m trip with plenty of early action expected across the track.
Looking at the form behind those shorter prices, Bliss Bomb jumps off the page after drawing barrier two for trainer Lloyd Kennewell and jockey Logan Bates, coming off a solid effort when sent forward and boxing on at Kyneton. Marilyn's Edge carries the top weight from barrier nine for Shawn Mathrick and Sam Kennedy, holding a rating of 100 and looking to bounce back following a tough run at Horsham after placing at Mildura. Sistine Tunnel is another tracking well from barrier six for Andrew Noblet and Holly Durnan, having gone close at this track previously before finishing off at Geelong.
Further down the order, Fearless Monarch catches the eye starting from barrier one for A R McGregor and Liana Wood, benefiting from a hot jockey-trainer combination that outperforms market expectations. Speed maps show Marilyn's Edge and Grouse Mountain sharing early leader duties, while Bliss Bomb holds a handy onpace lane that should suit. The numbers suggest several chances rate a real chance in an open contest.

Placed 3yo+ (Bm62) at Mildura 6 Oct. On pace but soon under pressure and she knocked up badly at Horsham. Plenty of weight but can find a few lengths in this grade.
ILB
Odds of $9.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 10th last start at Horsham. Overlooking the last run and will appreciate the drop in class. Should be going forward early. Winning chance.
RP
A course winner; no impression when tenth of 11 at Horsham over 5½f (handicap) last month; this looks a decent race so looks opposable.
RSIS
At 8/1 didn't threaten when 10th last start at Horsham. Should improve and taking on a lower class of opponents. Should put in a decent effort.

Not disgraced when fourth over 1m2½f at Stony Creek (handicap) last December; produced several respectable runs lately; returns from a break today; this line-up contains some strong opposition so easy enough to take on.
RSIS
First run back from a 45 week break. Started 4/1 and finished 4th last time at Stony Creek and back in trip. The large claim from Dylan Dean should help.

Has multiple wins first up. Was $61.00 and underperformed when 9th last run Ballarat Synthetic and will be down in distance. Bailey Kinninmont provides some weight relief. Entitled to be a big price.
RP
Finished ninth of 12 at Ballarat over 7½f (handicap) in July; has scored over C&D; subpar since successful in a handicap at Yarra Glen last December; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as this is a fairly competitive event.
RSIS
Could build on a strong first run back record. Started 60/1 and below par when 9th last run Ballarat Synthetic and back to a shorter trip. Large claim helps.
