RIPPER RUPERT (8) made late ground and finished 3. 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 5f at this track, an improvement on his 11th at Pinjarra the run before. Has the ability to put the recent run of form behind him. LUCKY I AM (2) has been about the money with three minor placings from five starts this campaign, the latest a solid second over 5f at Belmont Park. Has a decent record at this trip with eight minor placings from 10 tries and is sure to run well. KINGS COURT (3) comes here fresh from an all-the-way win by a neck over this journey at Belmont Park on February 25. Must be included. NICCIMOTA (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5f at this track, beaten one length into fourth. Worth noting Chanel Cooper goes aboard. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
