Verdict

EAU DE COLOGNE (6) is the fascinating runner in the last. He switched to this track last time out and absolutely bolted in, destroying his rivals by over five lengths. Lucinda Boyd is looking to make hay while the sun shines and backs up quickly - if he repeats that he'll win again albeit she does draw very wide. SHOOTER MCGAVIN (1) has just been edged out in his past couple, sitting on a slow speed last time when beaten by the barest of margins. Down in grade again and will take plenty of catching. BLACKLIP (7) ran on well for third here last time out and has each-way claims off that. FALSTAFFIAN (4) was too bad to be true in Adelaide last time. The fresh maiden win was dominant and he can bounce back. QUEEN BEIRA (12) just found one better here last time and is in the mix again.
