RACE EIGHT
SCOOB OPERATOR (9) was having his 1st start since being claimed out of Vic by Dean Cernovskis when taking on a mile contest here last week. Taken back from gate 5, he then went to the pegs hoping for luck. Running into dead-ends, he was closing strongly and with the right trail can arrive.
POLISHED ROCKS (2) went to the pegs last start to find some luck when finishing 5m from ITS JUST KENNY. Forced to face the breeze the start prior, he faded late under a strong mile. With the early bullets to fire, he can look to dictate and will be gripping on in the stretch.
JUMPING JOLT (11) will take some benefit out of his latest appearance when returning from a freshen. From gate 12 he went luck hunting to find the line in good order and can swoop late here.
IMTHE GOLDEN CHILD (3) hasn’t had the best of luck in recent outings, the latest when locked in the running line and never getting a crack at them. A 4m 2nd here 3 starts back, he is in the mix.
