Verdict

BALMORAL CASTLE (2) is back for a second campaign off a four-month spell. Finished second in a hot form race on debut over this distance at Murtoa then placed at Rosehill and achieved her peak rating. Winning chance if she can reproduce those performances this time in work. PRINCESS DANE (3) is a debutante by Star Witness from a Dane Shadow mare who has been a remarkable producer of winners over 13 seasons. Went close in a recent Warwick Farm trial so a bright start looks on the cards. WINTERS KISS (5) is a Frosted filly on debut for the Hawkes stable. Four trials going back to July 2025 should have her ready to make an immediate impact. MOANA GOLD (6) is back from a 16-week spell. Made up plenty of ground to finish second when first-up last prep over 6 ¼f at Newcastle. This might be a bit short but she will be storming home. CHEEKY SORT (7) knocked up at the end of 6f at Kembla last start so coming back in trip is a positive development.
