Bonus has gained both career victories, including here, on very testing ground so more rain would aid his cause. Roscioli's only success came in a two-runner race at Brighton where he beat a long odds-on chanceso this looks a good opportunity for OTAGO (NAP) to get back on the winning trail. He's back on the same mark as when landing a Class 4 handicap at Brighton in April and this is a drop in grade. Alyara ran well when placed over the track and trip earlier this month but poorly at Chepstow next time.
