ZEROING IN

We go about finding a weekend special from a statistical angle.

Randwick Race 2 - 10 Rockabill

Promising type from the Gai Waterhouse stable who returned in good order at Newcastle last start when only edged out over the concluding stages. Was ridden more aggressively on that occasion and put in a very brave performance when his condition only appeared to falter late in the piece. He has only been seen twice in his short career to date but has displayed good ability on both occasions and is bred to relish the step up in trip on Saturday, being out of a Galileo mare. In what appears a fairly even contest on paper he does rate very well on recent form and with further improvement expected racing second up he shapes as one of the leading contenders.
