WONDER BOY (3) fought on for second last start over 1500m in the G2 Phar Lap Stakes at Rosehill, making it two minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable race and can take the next step and salute. RUE DE ROYALE (9) finds it hard to win with just one success from 14 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1300m at Sandown-Hillside. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. NDOLA (4) has two placings from four appearances this preparation and last start finished 3 lengths from the winner in third over 1600m at Flemington. Shapes as one to consider. SNEAKY SUNRISE (6) is racing well without winning. Last start finished sixth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1600m in the G3 Alexandra Stakes at Moonee Valley. Has a solid record at this shorter journey. Solid top three prospects.
