Laverton Race 1 - Desert Sands Contractors Mdn
I AM A ROCKSTAR (1) sets the standard despite a plain fifth in Class B company at Leinster, as this looks a more suitable Mdn and he is third-up on a quick back-up. His Leonora fourth two runs ago reads well enough for this, and his record on good tracks gives him the most rounded profile of the main hopes. INSPIRATIONAL MAC (3) is the immediate threat after running second over 1000m at Leinster at generous odds, with third-up fitness in his favour, but four unplaced 1200m attempts leave a genuine query. WILLYABRUP (2) finished closer than I AM A ROCKSTAR behind Gingeriffic last week and gets the same class drop, though a 25-start maiden record makes him easier to see in the placings than as a clear winner. SAMBUCA ROSE (4) has race fitness and a recent Open third at Landor to lean on, but her Leinster fifth was a sizeable backward step and she has to rebound quickly. UNRULY DAME (5) rounds them out.

Drops from Class B to a Mdn third-up after finishing fifth over 1400m at Leinster, beaten six and a half lengths by Gingeriffic when near the top of betting. The start prior at Leonora was better, fourth and beaten just over three lengths after settling handy and keeping on. The 1200m record is a query, but this looks a very suitable Mdn.

Closed the gap on Gingeriffic when fourth in a Class B over 1400m at Leinster last week, beaten just under two lengths and finishing ahead of I Am A Rockstar. That was a clear improvement on his BM56+ fourth at Leonora, where he was beaten over 12 lengths after tracking the leader. Long maiden record and 1200m stats keep him more place than win.

Showed genuine improvement at Leinster last week, running second over 1000m and beaten just under two lengths by Leg Godt at generous odds. That steadied the ship after a distant last at Leonora, where he began slowly and never worked into the race. Third-up fitness and the quick back-up are positives, though the step to 1200m brings a record of four unplaced attempts. The 1200m record stops short of a strong win push.

Was safely held at Leinster last week, finishing fifth over 1000m and beaten over 13 lengths by Leg Godt after being an outside chance in betting. Her previous run had more merit, third in an Open at Landor, albeit in a small field and beaten six lengths by Shasheno.

Has struggled to get close at both recent runs, finishing fourth over 1000m at Leinster last week but beaten over 12 lengths by Leg Godt after being unwanted in the market. The start prior at Carnarvon was similarly plain, last in a Class 1 and beaten over 13 lengths at big odds. Others bring much stronger claims.
