Wagga Race 8 - North Shore Cafe 3yo Pace
ROM BARO (10) was outclassed in a Victoria Derby heat last start but will enjoy a big drop in grade and had impressed with two successive wins at Shepparton prior, one of them from a similar barrier to this. Nicely placed and can return to the winners' list. PIASTRI (9) draws for a trail and is on the radar off back-to-back wins last month, one of them at this circuit and distance. SET PLAY (5) is worth plenty of thought after coming from wider for a win by 3 metres here last week. HESOURCELEBRITY (8) has been solid in Breeders Challenge heats of late, finishing second here two back and midfield last time at Menangle. Draws wide but may feature with luck.

Improved last start with a good run when 2nd (Fr2) over 1740m at this track was 4th-10.1 at the bell, beaten a neck by Atworthy Rocker (2:03.70) in 3yo on October 16 at $3.30. Decent effort last start. May feature again off the same draw.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Uptown Chance at this track over 1740m in a 3yo on October 4 at $26. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Major Austin at Canberra over 1770m in a 3yo on October 12 at $4.33. Progressing well. Can make his presence felt.

Resuming after three-and-a-half months off the scene. Finished off last campaign recording a big 10 m win when quickly away, (Fr4) at Redcliffe (2:10.40) beating Tellmeboutit in on July 9 at $3.90 at the bell was leading 3.8m on the pegs. Previous preparation first-up won by 11 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Albion Park (2:01.10) beating Wannabe Wicked in on May 11 at $2. Has won when fresh before so watch the betting.

Last start was well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, behind Yottie at Menangle over 1609m in a 3yo on October 13 at $101. Performed better the start before with a game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr4) over 1740m at this track, at the bell was 4th-11.6 beaten 11 m by Uptown Chance (2:04.30) in 3yo on October 4 at $23. Can be right in the thick of things.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 1740m after showing early speed at this track was 5th-8.6 at the bell, beaten 5 m by Imon (2:01.70) in 3yo on October 9 at $11. Showed ability the race before when he ran on from midfield and posted a big 8 m win as favourite (Fr3) at this track (2:45.50) beating Paul Adam in on September 22 at $2.10 at the bell was 3rd-3.7. Capable of playing a major role.

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into eleventh after being driven well back, behind Brooklyn Dan at Melton over 2760m in a 3yo on October 10 at $151. Raced better the start before that where he won by 5 m as favourite (Sr3) at Shepparton (2:01.40) beating Major Orion in on October 6 at $1.50 at the bell was 7th-12.11. Better placed and has strong claims.
