LADY GIMLET (13) finished third on debut 12 weeks ago, beaten 1.2 lengths over 6f at Moonee Valley, and has not been produced since. Fitter for a fourth in a trial over 5f at Geelong. Likely improver and expected to play a major role. LOVERS FOREVER (15) finished 3 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being prominent at the corner over 5f at Caulfield Heath, an improvement on her sixth on debut at Flemington the run before. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. CAPITALEX (3) is a colt by Capitalist and out of the dam Miss Expensive. Cost AUD $ 130,000 (Magic Millions 2023 Gold Coast Yearling Sale) as a yearling. Fitter for a recent trial. Shapes well for this, can measure up at first outing. ROCK POP (14) is a first-starter by Grunt from the stakes winner Neena Rock who has in turn produced the winner of a black type. Scored in a recent trial at Terang. Sure to be well-educated, being from the T & C Mcevoy stable. Jumps from a favourable gate and is certainly worth considering.
