ALPINE ROCKET (5) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when fifth over 1m1f at Coleraine after he settled well back. Cherry-ripe now and looks set to find best form. GOLDEN GARDEN (3) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Donald, finishing second and only 0.8 lengths from the winner at the end of 1m3f after being prominent at the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ODYSSEY ARROW (18) broke her maiden last start over 1m4 1/4f at Geelong, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped. FLYING WITNESS (13) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 4 lengths away in eighth over 7½f at Ballarat. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
