Verdict

BLUE DOOR (1) brings the right form to the table with Nash taking the reins. Set a blistering speed second up, when gunned down late by Guest House in race-record time with a tough second over 5 ½f in the G3 San Domenico Stakes at this track. Takes on the B-grade today and expected to find winning form. HALF PIPE (2) comes here deep into prep and is capable of taking a race of this calibre out. Strong through the line when fourth in the G3 San Domenico Stakes. Since fitted with an 4f tick-over trial when second at Warwick Farm. Value contender not to be overlooked. OH YES SHE DID (8) fourth up for this and can tag the good speed after fading late when seventh in the G2 Furious over 6f at Randwick. Back in trip and deserves another chance. CIARON'S STAR (7) resumes after winning the Pierro and placing in the G2 Percy Stakes in her first campaign. Trialled well and must be kept safe. OUTSPAN (4) blinkers go on and it wouldn't be a shock to see him finish over the top of these.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Yielding

A rain-soaked turf condition often producing a slick or heavy course and slower finish times.

Also Eligible

A horse that is entered but does not draw into the body of the field due to too many entries, and thus is not permitted to start unless there are enough scratches to shrink the field size.

Bobble/Stumble

A slip or a duck from a horse trying to leave the starting gates, often caused by the surface giving way under the feet. This can range from a mild misstep to a stumble down to their knees.
