GREENIDGE (7) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 2.25 lengths away in third over 5½f at Strathalbyn. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed. Finds the right race this time and can get the chocolates. UNIVERSAL ROCK (10) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 7f at Horsham after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. VALIEVA (11) produced a solid effort last time when fourth over 5½f at Strathalbyn. The extra journey should play into her hands. Poses a significant threat. THE PHARMACIST (2) ran a better race when second up last start, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths at Oakbank. Ready to show his best.
