    Race Analysis

    ENCODER (6) returns from a short break after winning over 1m1f at Gold Coast five weeks ago. Shouldn't lack fitness after a recent Beaudesert trial placing. Strong winning chance. BEAR ON THE LOOSE (15) was given a short break after finishing fourth over 1m2f in the LR Albury Gold Cup. Kept ticking over with a subsequent trial at Rosehill. Rates highly and is among the main hopes. NELLIE LEYLAX (12) finished ninth last time out over 1m2f at Albury, beaten 5. 5 lengths. One of the better chances. TRAVOLTA (5) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fourth beaten 3 lengths over 1m5f in the G2 Chairman's Quality at this track. Has an impressive strike rate at this distance with two wins from four runs and is a key contender.
