BONJOUR RUPERT (8) finished fifth over 6f at Randwick when resuming last start, beaten only 2 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Has a perfect second up record from two starts including last prep when successful over 5f at Coffs Harbour. Won't find this as tough so he can bounce back. NEVER SORRY (1) scored two runs back then was well in commission last time but could only manage to finish seventh over 6½f at Wyong after she had settled well back. Has the class to figure prominently. SHARP SHOCK (3) raced in town last time and missed the frame, finishing ninth at Randwick and beaten 2.5 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will be picking them up late. CAPITAL GAMBLE (12) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7f at Tamworth, beaten 0.9 lengths into fifth. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
