Verdict

STATE IN TEXAS (3) saves his best form for this track and trip with four wins and two seconds from eight attempts and will be cherry-ripe now third run back from the break. Gets 4lbs weight relief with the claim and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Plenty to like about his prospects. The well-related MEDALS (2) (full to G3 winner Tailleur) returned in fine fashion with a strong win over this course and distance and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Can go back-to-back without surprising. You'd love to own a stable full of gallopers like DIAMANTINA ROSE (5) who has only missed a drum once in 15 career outings. Never runs a bad race and has to be included in calculations. RUNAROUND SUE (7) is a two-time winner here and will be ready to peak now third run back. In the mix. WONDEREACH (1) rounds out the selections in a competitive affair.
