1. My Pendant | First-up after 18 week break and generally strong first-up. Down in distance. Prefer others. |
2. She's A Thief | Faded to finish four lengths off the winner last start at Bendigo on a soft track when resuming but three from five wins have been in the dry. Large claim helps but looking elsewhere. |
3. Lesage | Got the campaign off to a strong start winning when fresh and faded from front position to finish just off the winner last start at Moonee Valley. Won two of five as a favourite. Must respect. |
4. Switched | Amongst the placegetters last start running third at Randwick on a heavy track when resuming and three from four wins have been in the dry. Ran first at Warwick Farm when last second-up. Go well. |
5. Causeway Girl | Ran six lengths back from the winner last start at Mornington but has two placings from six runs this prep. Draws to do no work. Capable of getting into the money. |
6. Cordilla | Ran nine lengths back from the winner last start at Moonee Valley when fresh but generally strong second-up. Carries a lot less weight but appears tested. |
7. The Commoner | 2-1/4 len 2nd of 8 (5) $2.70F 56.5 Pravro 1000m Echuca (Bm78) Good(4) Mar 7. Began awkwardly 3-3/4 len 6th of 10 (9) $17.00 53.5 Sartorial Splendor 1000m Mornington (Bm78) Good(3) Mar 20. |
8. Rainbiel | Has placed in two runs from three this campaign but faded to finish three lengths off the winner last start at Moonee Valley. Rates highly with Dean Holland aboard. Should go well. |
9. Garvoc | Winner at Geelong and placed twice this prep. Finished a length back from the leader last start at Mornington. Big decrease in weight from last start. Confident will go close. |
10. Knowles | Raced wide without cover 3/4 len win of 10 (10) $3.20F 58.5 Ruler By Choice, Luiselli 1300m Sandown-Hillside 3yo+ F&M (Bm70) Good(3) Feb 17. Began awkwardly 8-1/4 len 12th of 15 (10) $61.00 56.0 Chaillot 1400m Flemington G3 Tressady Stakes Good(3) Feb 27. |
