Most surprised the pontiff has only a small book of rides at Pinjarra today.

Riding Aunt Dorothy in race 1 - first-up for about 6 months, just the 2 runs, the last run at Belmont a reasonable effort.

Nothing in race 2 or 3. Rides the unraced Diamond Grey in race 4, did OK recent trial.

Nothing in race 5 or 6. In race 7 he's on Border Control, running out of his class but 2 starts since a spell have been good. And in race 8 his mount Metalikali been scratched.

Guess he'll have plenty of energy remaining for Ascot Saturday!
