King Hit comes off a convincing maiden win, where he led from the front at Northam. Shaun O’Donnell stays on board, which is a big plus, and this gelding has shown he can maintain pace without folding under pressure. He’s likely to handle the rise in grade well with that solid foundation.
Last Stylebender has been racing sharply, fading slightly after setting the pace at Ascot. With some extra conditioning since, he’s well-suited to the 1000m sprint here and won’t have much pressure for the lead. His speed should give him an edge, and he is rightfully the favourite here.
She delivered an impressive upset win last start at Northam, and her form suggests she could be the real deal. With Jade Mc Naught, who’s already had success with her, Psycho Sista looks well-placed to take advantage of the conditions here. Her freshness and ability to stick close to the leaders will be key.
He’s shown promising form this prep, especially with a close fourth at Ascot, finishing just over a length from the winner. With the apprentice claim lightening his load, he’s carrying less weight than usual, giving him a clear edge over his competition. On Patrol has experience navigating fields well, and his ability to close strongly late in races suggests he’ll be right in the mix, especially if the race develops with a steady pace early on. Expect him to position just off the speed and make a strong move in the final 200 meters.
