"It’s exciting and we’re going to know where we’re at going forward." Nick Ryan is expecting a big performance from Johnny Rocker in the Group 1 Moir Stakes at The Valley. @gilbertgardiner @nryanracing racenet.com.au/news/nick-ryan…




TJ Smith rated prices: $4.20 Imperatriz $5.10 Johnny Rocker $6.00 Sunshine In Paris $8.50 Bella Nipotina $9.00 I Wish I Win $11.00 Magic Time Imperatriz is a champion sprinter, but is best at Moonee Valley and perhaps not at her best in Sydney, although only the one run there so the jury's still out. Can someone good on NZ form please tell me if she was better clockwise over there. Johnny Rocker almost beat Imperatriz last start at Moonee Valley, after getting an almost identical run. Yet to race on a wet track but other than that why can't he reproduce that effort, or even improve on it? First prep with very good trainer Nick Ryan and other than failing second up when not right, he's improved massively each run. Connections didn't pay the $55K late nomination fee for nothing. $25 is great price. Sunshine In Paris found the 1100m a touch short first up. Very class mare. If handles heavy is right in this. Bella Nipotina has been praying for rain for the last 18 months. She's much better on soft tracks. Haven't heard any mention of Magic Time but she's a blowout chance for sure. Oh, almost forgot I Wish I Win. He will run well but big ask winning this first up. Can win but leave me out of $3.60.
