Verdict

TEYLU (2) resumes from Saturday BM78 form, having been beaten only 1.5L at Rosehill after leading deep into the straight. He boasts a strong fresh record and his form before the break stands out. Can give a bold sight. GUNROOM (6) has been performing at a higher level for a while now and steps up to 6f. JVO's booking is a big push for his chances and he maps to get every chance. KEIKOKU (3) flew over the top to win the Black Mountain in a photo. Loy hops on board now and out to 6f is a big tick. Watch for him late in the race. DONWON (7) is racing well and is not to be discounted from a good draw.

5	Closed off strongly first-up at Hawkesbury in a Benchmark 64, finishing third to Lady Of The Castle despite racing wide throughout and coming from well back. The shorter 5f is the one query, but he has placed at the distance and drops from 130lbs to 128lbs with a 4lbs claim. Great run on resumption and he rates highly with improvement to come. 1st Pick 5 Los Padres Jockey: Non Runner Trainer: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter J: Non Runner T: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter	138	-	-	-	1%	Scratched

2	Resumes after three months off following a sound Rosehill fifth in Saturday company, beaten a length and a half in a 3yo+ CG Benchmark 78 after travelling on speed and being overrun late. His Randwick third two back was even stronger, beaten just over half a length in 3yo+ Benchmark 78 grade. Back to country level now and he's hard to knock on his form before the break. 2nd Pick 2 Teylu Jockey: Coriah Keatings Trainer: Gratz Vella J: Coriah Keatings T: Gratz Vella	92	-	-	-	34%

6	Had excuses at Newcastle when sixth in a Benchmark 64 over 4 ½f, with early contact and being forced wide late adding context to a beaten margin of four and a half lengths. Two back at Randwick he faded in a 3yo+ Benchmark 72 over 6f after racing handy. Back to country level and things look to work out nicely for him today. 3rd Pick 6 Gunroom Jockey: Jean Van Overmeire Trainer: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter J: Jean Van Overmeire T: Mitchell Beer & George Carpenter	165	-	-	-	23%
