Verdict

ROKABYE WARRIOR (8) has shown good tactical speed in his two runs back, only to be reeled in late. Strikes an easier assignment third-up and is drawn to advantage. The one to beat. GREENIDGE (7) didn't give her rivals a sniff last start at Murray Bridge when leading pillar-to-post. Full of confidence and will be looking to quickly offset the wide alley. Should be in this for a long way. BOLTED IN (4) was too bad to be true last start in town when failing to run on. Finally draws a kind gate fourth-up and can bounce back sharply. ELLIOTTO (2) hasn't put a foot wrong in his last two as he shoots for the hat-trick. Will appreciate the anticipated tempo and has gun hoop in Opperman sticking. No reason he can't repeat the dose.

Chasing a hat-trick. Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Most recently came from midfield and won by a neck at Murray Bridge 0-56 January 24 over 1400m defeating Tick Tock Boom with 60kg at $4.40. The run before that came from midfield and won by 0.8 len at Naracoorte 3yo+ Mdn-Sw January 5 over 1200m defeating Smashing Action carrying 58kg at $5.50. In great form and should be right in the thick of things again.
