Belmont Race 2 - Glenroy Chaff Mdn
POLYVANOVA (6) peaks off two narrow defeats at Pinjarra. She's on a 7-day return and will run along from an insider barrier. Ready to go one better. SISTER TALK (7) improved again, missing a whisker at Pinjarra 18 days ago. She can improve again and will use the inside barrier. SAINTY CULLITY (1) resumes and three back was narrowly beaten in an Open 3 here on debut. Pulled up with an issue last time and resumes owning a trial win at the track over 1000m. Will give away a start but finish hard. TRUE BLUE BONDI (5) debuts with a gun jockey booked. His trials here have been sharp and elevate if the big money comes.

Three-year-old gelding (Bondi - Louisiana Blues) will no doubt benefit from the three trials prior to his debut today. Was second in a 1000m trial on March 4 at Belmont Park. Monitor betting moves closely.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, second last of 10 at Bunbury 3yo Mdn on February 27 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Something Royal carrying 55kg at $61. Better for that experience but prefer to see her again.
