BLUESTONE (4) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Sandown-Hillside over 1m4f after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. GOLDEN CRUSADER (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when fifth in a 1m4 1/2f contest at Flemington three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in the firing line on the turn. This is a nice drop in grade so he is a major player. OFF HIS ROCA (17) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when tenth, beaten 12 lengths, over 1m4 3/4f at Flemington. Has the class to take care of this field. JAYKAYANN (9) ran a better race last start, finishing 1.75 lengths away in fifth over 1m4f at Sandown-Hillside. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
