Mark Purdon and Natalie Rasmussen trained Cruz Bromac has moved into second on the rankings following his last-start Group 1 win in New Zealand over Turn It Up and Jack’s Legend. Blacks A Fake Championship winner Let It Ride is the No.3 ranked pacer for trainer Tim Butt. The five-year-old finished second to Ellmers Image last time out at Menangle beaten 1.3m in 1:49.9.

The top 36 pacers will contest the series, however a Second Acceptance/Continuation Fee is due this Friday and the final pacers to contest ID18 will be revealed on Monday.
