RALLY THE TROOPS (9) got the job done at Geraldton two back before a strong effort as favourite at Ascot most recently. Up to the mile doesn't appear an issue and he draws ideally to find the front. Blinkers come off now and he can go to another level again now. IDYLLIC RULER (1) led them up over this trip at Northam and was too good, winning by 0.8L as favourite. He'll carry less weight today with the claim of Gaerth and he'll be fitter again third-up. Should be prominent in the run and will take catching. AUDIO BOY (2) just missed behind Idyllic Ruler last start when trying to run him down at Northam. Pike now hops in the saddle and he was a good winner at Ascot prior. Wide alley but rates highly and should be in the finish. WOZZECK (6) comes through the same race behind Idyllic Ruler and Audio Boy and has to be included. FIVE DOWN (3) disappointed on Saturday but gets the blinkers on today on the quick turnaround. Can bounce back.
