Verdict

ELEGANT STRIDE (9) only beat one home when resuming at Menangle but this is easier and she should strip fitter. Tricky draw but showed ability when she ended her last campaign with a win at Newcastle. THE POSTMASTER (2) was far from disgraced when midfield from the back row last start. That was eight weeks ago but he was kept up to the mark with a trial. Two-time winner at this distance and draws well. ADIRADIVA (8) ended last prep with a third at this circuit and distance in November and has been readied with two trials. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. JANELLE MAY (3) draws well and is better placed having raced at Menangle of late.
