Race Tip
TOLEMAC (5) is looking to improve on a last-start eighth on the flat over 1m4f at Sandown-Lakeside on April 1. The testing material. STERN IDOL (1) is looking to go one better after filling a minor placing on the flat over 1m7f at Sandown-Hillside last time out on March 20. William Mc Carthy gets the best out of this seven-year-old gelding and regains the ride. Sure to make his presence felt. ROCKSTAR RONNIE (2) wasn't far from the placegetters when resuming from a 249-day layoff on the flat last start, beaten 5 lengths into sixth at Warrnambool over 1m3 3/4f. That run was the first for the Ciaron Maher stable. Genuine jumper with six wins and five minor placings from 15 starts over the obstacles. Generally goes well second up, with two wins and two placings from four runs. Will come on from that run and is worth considering. RIDING HIGH (4) is looking to improve on a last-start 12th on the flat over 1m2f at Ballarat on April 3. Sure to make his presence felt.
