Handy little race and happy to side with DETONATOR JACK (3) who rushed home first up over 1200m in the LR Regal Roller over a highly unsuitable trip. That was his first run to miss a place and he looks well in here with 54.5kg and Jamie Kah taking the ride. ANTINO (2) is the big watch. Unbeaten last time in, his last start win rated very highly in the LR Wayne Wilson. Could have some lofty targets this time in and a repeat of that run will win this. KALINO (4) worked home nicely over this trip at Caulfield last start. Has the option to be positive here down in the weights and should give a sight. UMGAWA (6) and NICOLINI VITO (5) were sound in the Regal Roller and have place claims.

Group 3 placegetter. Useful gelding. At the latest run raced on the pace when 3rd of 8 at Moonee Valley 4yo+ Bm100 on August 26 over 1519m, 3 len behind Deny Knowledge carrying 60.5kg at $21. The run before that eased back early on 8th of 15 at this track in the LR Winter Cship on July 1 over 1600m, slow going 3.5 len behind Riddle Me That with 60kg at $13. Chances enhanced by drawing a nice marble.
Resuming after a break of three-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign won by 3 len Eagle Farm LR W Wilson June 10 over 1600m defeating Munhamek with 59kg at $2.60. Previous preparation first-up favourite; won by 0.6 len Eagle Farm Cl6 April 15 over 1200m defeating Extremist carrying 55.5kg at $1.90. Progressive horse who can win this fresh.
Group 1 placegetter. Second run back.
