MOCKRIDGE (4) was in the money two starts back at Pakenham but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 2.5 lengths, at Geelong over 1400m. Finds a tougher race but a big run will not surprise. WOLLEMIA ANGEL (13) has not figured so far this prep. Missed the placings, beaten 1.75 lengths, two runs back when resuming over 1243m at Geelong then failed to complete the course last time out at Geelong. Certainly worth another chance. SKY DEEL (18) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1400m at Sandown-Lakeside when third, beaten 7 lengths. Likely improver so another top-three finish is on the cards. VELLASGLORY (7) faced the starter for the first time and finished sixth last start at this track over 1200m, beaten 3 lengths. Should be thereabouts.
