SCOOP THE POOL (5) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 1. 4 lengths, over 1m at this track. Among the top chances. SARAPO (4) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1m1f at Hawkesbury, beaten only 1. 5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. LILAC GIRL (8) is yet to break through in five runs. Finished fourth at her last appearance over 1m at Wyong on March 18. Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. CAVALRY (1) drifted well back last start then came with a powerful run to finish 2. 75 lengths from the winner in second when resuming over 7f at Pakenham. Has ability and a bold showing is expected.
