Mick Is Back should be more competitive here after struggling under a penalty last time but SION HILL should end a run off near misses by landing this lady riders handicap while Whotsit is also considered. The selection has been second best in each of his last three starts and with the pilot on his back negating most of a three pound mark rise for his latest run another prominent show is expected. Mick Is Back will enjoy the cut in the ground and after finding a six pound penalty too much to handle last time he'll be seen in a better light under a more realistic burden. Whotsit narrowly missed when two pounds lighter on his last start but with the form looking solid from that race he is entitled to challenge as is Rock Anthem who is racing well below his last winning mark. Not the easiest race to finish with and Sion Hill is only a percentage call.
