RACE SIX
JOHNROD (6) just keeps grinding it out in his races and has had a top season where he has hit the board in 11 of 13, which includes 4 wins. Sitting parked last start, he kept grafting away to claim the prize which followed a tough trip when 2nd here two back. Despite the gate he can put it to them.
DARBY BRIGHTS (9) was sent to the post as favourite from this same gate last start in a slighting stronger contest where she was able to finish midfield, 6m from the winner LEFT IN THE WIND. Asked to do it tough the start prior, this is within reach, and she can throw down a challenge.
FEEL THE THRILL (8) could not find position last start and was forced to retreat from gate 4 and from back in the pack never featured. Pressing through at the start, he has podium claims.
NOLONGA YOUR CHOICE (3) does not have much in figure form to gain a solid recommendation, but with his early speed, he can dart across here and with limited pressure can give some cheek.
SELECTIONS: JOHNROD (6), DARBY BRIGHTS (9), FEEL THE THRILL (8), NOLONGA YOUR CHOICE (3)
