Race Tip

Group 2 placegetter BLUE ROCKET (4) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 6f at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MEAN MACHINE (1) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 0.7 lengths into third over 6f at this track. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of a big performance. TRUE APOSTLE (2) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth and beaten 4.5 lengths starting at 11/2. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. JACKPOT BINGO (5) was a real eye-catcher last start, coming from the tail over 7f at this track to finish a long neck from the winner in second. Should be at his peak so he looks sure to be competitive.
