Verdict

TORSHEEN (4) clearly on top. She's going very well since a win at Sale, just finding one better her past couple starts in strong races, beaten by Fundamental Nature here last time who finished third in the Inglis Sprint on Saturday at Flemington. She lands in a good spot here and takes a power of beating. SUSSEX DUCHESS (3) is flying this time in, winning 2/3 and just missing in the other. She'll track the speed and prove hard to hold out. QUEEN AMANJENA (6) resumes having gone to the paddock a winner at Ballarat last time in. She can figure. WRITTEN BLIGH (1) is a bit hit-or-miss but has claims on best.
