Rock The Ring is Swan Hill bound for the Golden Topaz after being scratched from a race in Adelaide.

Underrated South Australian sprinter Dexelation will be trying to go one better than last year in Friday’s $150,000 Golden Topaz (1200m) at Swan Hill.

Promising Victorian sprinter Lombardo extended his affinity with Adelaide and put his hand up for a tilt at some of SA upcoming sprint features during the carnival winning Saturday’s Listed Manihi Classic at Morphettville.

Tony and Calvin McEvoy will use Saturday’s $107,250 Manihi Classic (1100m) as a guide to the carnival prospects of talented sprinter Rock The Ring.

Will Clarken is hoping to spread his wings internationally in 2022.
