Gosford on dry ground with the rail out +3m, watch out for some ON-PACE and INSIDE bias. KOOLED trialled well and looks like the horse to beat in the opening race if he gets luck from the inside. Threats from DUFRESNE, WOLFBURN and CALIFORNIA SURREAL. who all have decent form this prep. ROCCAFORTE a knock-out chance if he behaves himself. A few to watch in the yard too in a tricky race. Barrier trial notes; KOOLED was solid (near pace 1st), HOLLYWOOD NORTH looked OK (on-pace 2nd, hard ridden big 1st), HURIWAI was fair (mid 4th, on-pace urged 2nd), FANGIRL finished off strongly (3rd in Qld, back ran on late 4th), LADY PIAF looked OK (back 4th, led 1st), DARK ENERGY ran on well (3rd and 1st), EXCELA BELLA was OK (on-pace 3rd).
