Verdict

MAHMOA (4) just missed at Casino first-up and then didn't have the best of it early beaten 2L at Grafton over 7f. He will position on the pace from an inside barrier and is well placed to break through. JUNOSTAR (9) improved sharply beaten a long neck at Grafton over 7f. Maps well enough and the extra metres are sure to suit. DIOSA (5) switched north from Waller's Melbourne stable and needed the first-up outing at the Sunshine Coast. Just missed at Kyneton 7 ¼f at her lone second-up outing, and that effort would win this. May need one more, but the betting will provide a strong guide to that. Stablemate ZEPHIRINE (7) peaks and wasn't beaten too far in the same contest. Needs to find more but this suits better.
