JOHNNY ROCKER (5) is very interesting here now with the Nick Ryan yard. He's had 6 starts to date in Queensland and run some good races, beaten 1.5 lengths by the very smart Golden Boom first up over this trip last time in. Doubt he goes backwards with Ryan and he can take this out. WIGGUM (2) was a smart winner over this route during Cup week before an even effort at Cranbourne. Fresh here and back down the straight, if he finds his best he'll go close. MORNINGTON GLORY (6) continues to race very well with two second placings here over 1100m at his past two. Should be right in the finish again. JOSEYLIN (9) can improve off an even run last time when hard in the market while MANHATTAN THUNDER (7) strips fitter from a sound win first up.

Second-up. First-up after five months failed to make an impression; ran last of 9 at Moonee Valley Bm78 on December 23 over 1000m, 8 len behind Philosopher carrying 58.5kg at $8.50. Previously second-up won by 4.5 len at Seymour Bm58 April 27 over 1000m in soft going defeating Redneck Princess with 61.5kg at $3.50. Solid top-three hope.
Comes here off a 56-day let-up. Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 7 at Cranbourne 3yo Hcp on November 25 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Extremely Rowdy with 58kg at $2.60. The race before that favourite; won by 1.3 len at this track 3yo SWP November 7 over 1000m defeating Barber with 57kg at $9.50. Suited here and should go close.
Second-up. First-up after five months ran last of 12 at this track Bm70 on December 20 over 1100m, 4.5 len behind Luna Cat carrying 59.5kg at $26. Previously second-up 3rd of 11 at this track Bm78 on June 17 over 1000m, 0.5 len behind Rain Lord carrying 56.5kg at $61. Unlikely to threaten.
Resuming after a break of five months. Finished off last campaign second of 9 at Cranbourne Bm70 August 20 over 1000m, soft track; a head behind Get Up Girl carrying 60kg at $6.50. First up last campaign second last of 7 at Sandown-Hillside Bm70 July 26 over 1000m, soft track; 4 len behind Twin Perfection with 60.5kg at $10. Faces a tough essay.
Resuming after a break of 13 months. Finished off last preparation fourth in a small field at Eagle Farm in the LR Gold Edition December 17 2022 over 1200m, 6 len behind Golden Boom with 57kg at $7. When resuming last campaign second of 8 at Sunshine Coast 3yo Hcp November 19 2022 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Golden Boom with 56.5kg at $15. Brings some strong Queensland form to this and his best would go close.
Useful gelding. Most recently held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at this track Bm70 on January 1 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Midtown Boss carrying 59kg at $3.50. The run before that 2nd of 12 at this track Bm70 on December 20 over 1100m, nose behind Luna Cat with 59kg at $3.30. Big chance.
Second run back. First-up after six months ran on from midfield and won by a nose at Moonee Valley Bm64 December 23 over 1000m defeating Keane Enuff with 58.5kg at $8.50. Previously second-up 13th of 16 at this track Inglis Sprint on March 4 over 1200m, 11 len behind Benedetta with 57kg at $41. Among the leading chances.
Going well. Comes off a 42 day let-up. At the latest run sat on the pace when 3rd of 7 at Morphettville Cg&E 0-68 on December 9 over 1100m, on a wet track; 1.0 len behind All Beans carrying 58.5kg at $1.70. The run before that led but faded 3rd of 15 at Morphettville Riziz Bm68 on November 25 over 1100m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Wakanjeja with 58.5kg at $8.50. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.
Useful mare. Resumes off a 31 day let-up. Most recently struggled in the run home; 7th of 9 at this track F&M Bm70 on December 20 over 1000m, 7 len behind Sans Doute with 59kg at $3. Before that came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Warrnambool Bm70 on December 3 over 1000m, head behind It's Kind Of Magic carrying 58.5kg at $6.50. Should be thereabouts.
He is resuming after a four-and-a-half months break. Not seen since he finished last of 11 at this track in the LR Poseidon Stakes September 16 over 1100m, 11 len behind Archo Nacho carrying 57kg at $17. On debut with blinkers first time; third of 11 at Werribee 2yo Mdn-Sw June 25 over 1110m, on rain affected going; 4 len behind Archo Nacho with 56.5kg at $61. Lightly raced and can run well fresh.
Useful type. Last start favourite; won by 1.0 len at Mornington 0 - 64 December 28 over 1000m defeating Stirrup carrying 58.5kg at $2.50. The race before that 4th of 10 at Moonee Valley Bm64 on December 1 over 955m, slow going 0.7 len behind Lloyd's Crown with 56.5kg at $17. Last-start winner who can measure up again.
Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at this track Nmw (Bm78) on January 13 over 1000m, 2 len behind Chester Warrior with 54kg at $4. The run before that raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 9 at this track F&M Bm70 on December 20 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Sans Doute carrying 59.5kg at $9.50. Recent form suggests this might be a bit too tough.
Recent form sound. Last start 2nd of 8 at Moonee Valley F&M Bm70 on December 30 over 1000m, 0.8 len behind A Little Deep carrying 58.5kg at $4. The race before that won by 1.75 len at Caulfield Bm64 December 14 over 1100m defeating Plus Fours with 55.5kg at $3.30. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.
