Kembla Grange Race 2 - Rainmaker Bushfire Sprinklers Mdn Plate
AFLOAT (3) had nothing go his way first up off a long spell when soft in betting. Has placed at this longer trip previously and finds a track that should suit. Another chance. JUAN PABLO (6) impressed on debut before getting lost in the ruck in a big field last start. Rising in trip has genuine claims in this line up. IRISH JIG (5) was far from disgraced last campaign in handy maidens. Two recent trials have been spot on and looks set to hit the ground running. OKAMI STAR (7) was tough first up and should be suited by a longer trip. Drawn to be prominent from the outset. SO SUAVE (9) failed to impress in a summer debut and resumes as a gelding off a quiet trial. Definite improver

Last start 6th of 8 at Goulburn Ctry Mdn-Sw on April 8 over 1400m, on a slow track; 9 len behind Malinga Missile with 57.5kg at $26. Before that 9th of 11 at Orange Mdn-Sw on February 28 over 1600m, 6 len behind Casino Diva with 59kg at $51. Doubt he will offer up too much of a challenge to the top few.

Three-year-old gelding (Prized Icon - Fidele) has trialled on four occasions leading into today's race. Fifth at Kembla Grange in a 800m trial on March 24. Doesn't shape as a strong winning hope today.
