Resuming (21-weeks). Goes like a bomb fresh. Tested against better opposition last prep. Stacks up well first-up here.

ILB

First up after 21 weeks and made every post a winner to win by a nose first up last preparation at Caulfield Heath. Matched against lesser competition.

RSIS

Resuming and gave them all something to chase to win by a nose resuming last preparation at Caulfield Heath. Challenged by less formidable competitors. Drawn nicely. Down in distance.

On a quick back-up. Settled close and ran an honest race this course. Fit from racing, can make his presence felt with even luck.

ILB

On a short back up. At $16.00 couldn't maintain the pace when 4th last start at Cranbourne. Sheridan Clarke rates highly aboard.

RSIS

Racing on a quick back up. Started 15/1 and outmuscled in the late stages of the race when 4th last run at Cranbourne. Sheridan Clarke is a suitable booking.

First-up (15-weeks). Not beaten far Benchmark 62 company at Geelong first-up last preparation. Has an adverse draw for return. Shapes as a rough place prospect fresh in this company.

ILB

Resuming after a break. Odds of $3.50 and came in 6th last start at Murray Bridge and will be facing a significant drop in distance.

RSIS

First run back after a break. Was 5/2 and ran 6th last start at Murray Bridge and will be facing a significant drop in distance.

Comments

AAP

Settled midfield, ran on fairly without troubling in choppy conditions 3yo+ (Bm78) at Sandown-Hillside second-up. Latest below par but fitter now and worth another look.

ILB

Was $18.00 and finished 7th last time at Sandown. Should improve from the last run. Will be motoring home late. Tough competitor.

RSIS

Odds of 17/1 and came in 7th last start at Sandown. Overlooking the last run. Should be swooping on the field late. Definite claims for punters.

Knuckled down really well for a narrow win at Caulfield Heath over this journey. Well placed for repeat.

ILB

Ran over the top of them when winning last time at Caulfield Heath. Ben Allen is very comfortable aboard. Will go very close.

RSIS

Finished with purpose when winning last run at Caulfield Heath. Ben Allen has multiple wins aboard. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

AAP

Landed handy, unable to go with winner in Benchmark 62 company at Mornington first up. Strips in better shape. Won only other time at Cranbourne. Warrants attention.

ILB

Made some ground late when 2nd last start at Mornington but stepping up to a higher level. Should muster plenty of early speed. Gets some weight relief. Respect the betting.

RSIS

Managed to run into 2nd last run at Mornington but up against a more competitive field. Has plenty of early pace. Suited by the weight drop. Respect the betting.

Sent out $3.60 when battled home to finish 4th at Mornington. Capable of making an impact.

ILB

Started at $3.60 and felt the pinch when 4th last run at Mornington and promising career start. Should jump out and bowl along. Dropping weight. Good tough competitor that can be supported.

RSIS

Started 13/5 and peaked on the run when 4th last start at Mornington and good career start. Shows good early pace. Showing positive results since returning from a break. Strong chance.

Sent out $6 when unable to threaten in testing conditions at Moe. Meeting stronger company. Looking elsewhere.

ILB

At $6.00 faded to finish 12th last time at Moe and facing a stronger group of contenders. Teodore Nugent is a plus and gets some weight taken off.

RSIS

Started 5/1 and didn't threaten when 12th last time at Moe on a heavy rated track and up against stronger rivals. Teodore Nugent takes the reins today.

Odds correct as at 12:00 pm AEST. Odds can change.
