Race Tip

SORRENTO PALACE (8) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 6f at Bathurst, beaten only 1. 5 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. CONDONE (1) wasn't disgraced in city class last time when finishing eighth at Warwick Farm. Faces a far less daunting assignment this time. Bold showing expected. TRIPTOLEMUS (6) returns from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months and did win when resuming last time in work over 6f at Wagga. Winning chance while fresh. ACE OF LACE (10) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 3. 5 lengths into fifth over 5f at Wagga. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
