1. Kosowski | Let-up and has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier. Large claim helps. Can surprise. |
2. Secret Hero | First-up after 19 week break and rates highly with Craig Atkinson aboard but still looks tested. |
3. Pal's Reward | Faded to finish ninth last start at Bendigo but has the speed to overcome a very wide draw. Rates highly with Jake Noonan back on board. At least a place chance here. |
4. Monsoon Reins | Slowly away 5 len 8th of 12 (7) $61.00 58.0 Sweet Mary 1000m Bendigo 2yo+ (Bm64) Heavy(8) May 1. Dwelt at start (2L). Respiratory issues. Ordered to trial 15-1/4 len 8th of 10 (1) $8.50 61.0 Mojo Music 1000m Albury Hcp (C1) Heavy(10) May 13. |
5. Squamanzer | Let-up and placed when fresh. Rates highly with Daniel Stackhouse aboard but unlikely. |
6. True Nobility | In the money last start running third at Horsham and gets the blinkers on for the first time. Wide barrier is a concern. One for wider exotics. |
7. Rastelli | Chased well to just miss last start at Spendthrift Australia Park and has the speed to overcome a very wide draw. Placed once this prep at Mornington. Well placed. |
8. Wegottem Today Son | Eased down. Vetted - no abnormalities 10-1/2 len last of 8 (2) $5.50 62.0 Kore 1400m Wangaratta 3yo+ (Bm58) Soft(6) Nov 16. 1/2 nk, 1/2 nk 3rd of 6 (4) $6.50 62.0 Junko, Beachhaven 1110m Werribee 3yo+ (Bm58) Soft(7) April 22. |
9. Tycoon's Girl | Strong in winning last start to break maiden at Horsham on a soft track when first up. John Allen and Tony & Calvin McEvoy are a proven combination. Hard to go past. |
10. Are You Gold Enuff | Back after 22 week break and gets the blinkers back on. Returns to shorter trip. Not keen. |
11. Bob's Relish | In the money last start running third at Mornington and has two placings from five runs this prep. Tatum Bull has had success aboard previously. Sneaky chance. |
12. Gold Gift | 4-3/4 len win of 12 (1) $2.35F 56.5 Extreme Prince, Penny Stocks 900m Albury Mdn Plate Good(4) April 14. Began awkwardly 2-1/2 len 6th of 14 (9) $4.40 56.0 Prophet's Choice 1000m Donald 2yo+ Hcp (58) Good(4) May 7. |

14. Shock And Awe | Ran on strong to finish on the winner's heels last start at Donald and won once this prep at Coleraine six runs back. Rates highly with Declan Bates back on board. Leading hope. |
15. Hot Reward | Beaten easily last start at Sale and gets the blinkers back on. Has struggled in both runs so far this campaign. Cannot entertain. |
16. Tenacity Miss | Resuming from a long 94 week spell and having first start for a new trainer. Needs a few starts to get warm. Appears safely held. |
