Over to The Joey where SALOON BAR (5) looks the horse to beat. He's been rattling off slick splits in the key Quokka lead-ups, but takes the lower route to The Joey. Barrier 7 is great for him, Pike sticks and he's poised to strike third-up in his Grand Final. He'll be hard to beat. RIPCORD (2) disappointed at the end of last campaign but his first-up run in Melbourne was very good. He's trialled nicely coming in and gets the winkers on again, as well as the tongue tie first time. Key player. TWAIN'S ANGEL (13) beat Quokka runners last start at this track and trip 56 days ago and has trialled well since then. Looks to get every chance off the inside and she can play a major role. SNOWDOME (3) will appreciate the slight rise in trip and he can return to form. PETULA (14) suggested she was back to her best last time out and can go on with the job.

    Racing well. Comes here off a 56-day let-up. At the latest run favourite; came from midfield and won by a head at this track M Charleson March 1 over 1200m defeating Generosity carrying 56.5kg at $2.30.

Hard to knock her form and can feature off the inside.
