Miss Mossman: Very disappointing first up run in Australia when fell out of it very fast! Up to 2000m obviously help and so will a little more sting out, but struggle to suggest based on that first up run.
Artistic Lass: Won two of last three in similar distances… did alot wrong last start costing her the win. Back to dryer ground not exactly ideal to find her best, but can still obviously handle and run well.
First Bloom: Similar class of race today and up to 2000m which should very much suit her today coming off a good win at Moonee Valley last start. Looks very well in here.
Hula Lua: Hard horse to catch! Ran nicely behind Every Faith first up then failed last two starts including behind First BLoom last start. Not sure what to make of her.
Lilly Dazzler: Obviously a very good win last start at Flemington jumping out of the ground to beat Iteration. Can run well again today based on that run.
Iteration: Disappointing 2nd last start at Flemington but the extra 200m today will obviously help. Barrier gives her every chance once again today and Dunn onboard for a more timed run than last start. Expect her to be very hard to beat and the stable are confident.
No Excuses Bec: Blocked for runs last start and had excuses (hehe). Has to find her best to measure up here.
Melaleuca: Blocked for runs and just forget she went around last start. Poorly weighted today though.
Boogielicious: Wouldn’t be taking the Pakenham and Sale form as holding up here today. Loves to not win the close ones this prep. Consistent type.
Kepy Woman: Ran home nicely enough last start when 3rd to Lilly dazzler and Iteration. Can run well again with extra 200m suiting.
Manageress: More forward last start at Caulfield but still no match for Refulgent with the slow pace set. Is 2000m the horses distance or does it need a step back to 1600m? Jury is out for me and if the horse is suited in open class as well as 3YO class. Tough race to win this!
Musica Royale: Every chance last two runs. Happy to take her on here today.
Avenue of Glory: Looks to be one to take on today if gets a run.
Comments: They are giving us a good price again today on Iteration and i can’t see a reason to jump off. Manageress is the false favourite for mine today in this. First Bloom looks the key threat.
Confidence 85%
Quaddie Leg Four: 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12
