Verdict

HILLTOP BLOSSOM (1) finished fourth last start at Group Two level in a race won by Arrhythmia over 1 ?m at Melton, beaten 10 metres. Drawn well so a win is on the cards. MEZZANOTTI (5) won at St Arnaud two runs ago before a less impressive effort at her latest appearance over 1 ?m at Horsham, beaten 8 metres. Meets some better types this time but she has the ability to test this field. ELLA KATE (2) is on the radar after her last-start fourth over 1m at Port Pirie four weeks ago. GOTTA GO ROSE (3) lines up for the first time. By Gotta Go Cullect and hails from the F Pullicino stable. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Finds a nice race so anticipating a bright start to her career.
