PITTSBURGH PIRATE (3) delivered the hat track easily winning the Ararat Cup from the front. Gets more weight but he will run along again and prove hard to roll. MI ROCK ALY (6) was quickly back to form winning the Mortlake Cup. She is proven third-up and has more up the sleeve. A decent chance to go on. GLITTER 'N' GOLD (4) is third-up and should be ready to fire. She has been kept up to the mark with a trial and maps well. Her best is good enough. PICAROON (2) has been racing in stronger in town and hasn't been having much luck. She is on the quick backup and an improved effort is likely.
