ALTHOFF (7) lines up for the hat-trick after registering a strong win last time over 7f at this track, scoring by 0. 9 lengths. Siena Grima stays on. Bold showing expected. SOVEREIGN HILL (17) made it two wins in succession last time out when he scored by 1. 75 lengths over 6¾f at Rosehill. Winning rider Tim Clark retains the mount. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. AERODROME (14) is a progressive galloper who is when resuming since finishing fourth over 6½f in the G3 Up and Coming Stakes at Rosehill five-and-a-half months ago which was the only run of that prep. Fitter for three trials, most recently at Randwick. Has won when fresh from a lay-off in the past. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. One to consider. POLYMNIA (12) returns from a layoff of four months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 7f at this track. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with three minor placings from four tries. One to consider.
