Verdict

LUCKY VINCENT (2) finished fifth last start, beaten 13 metres at Bendigo over 1 5/16m. Talented and has plenty of upside. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Has the talent to take care of this field. ROCKNROLL WILLOW (6) resumes from a spell of four months after showing some very good form last campaign, the last run being a eighth over 1 ?m at Melton. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. MEDIA MOGUL (4) last appeared when eighth over 1 ¹/16m at Ararat five months ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep. ONYX (8) won two starts ago then things went wrong last start when he broke and finished 35 metres away in sixth over 1 5/16m at Terang. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon. Won't find this any harder and he can bounce back.
