Race Tip

LAUDING (2) scored by a nose last start over this journey at this track. Is unbeaten in three starts at this course and distance. Expected to measure up. NAME DROPPER (15) has been thereabouts, most recently when 2 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1m at this track. Extra trip a plus among the main hopes. LINCOLN ROCKS (4) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1m2 1/4f, beaten a nose. Cherry-ripe now. Is in top form this campaign, chalking-up two wins. Should be involved in the finish. GENTIAN BLUE (13) ran a better race last start, finishing 1.75 lengths away in fourth over 1m1f at Caulfield. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
