Verdict

An upgrade on the opening race - we've got four to go around here. SECRET CROSSING (8) is a filly by Gold Standard on debut for the Shane Jackson yard who has looked handy at the Flemington jumpouts. She's from a good family and Damian Lane rides, she should go close. LONDON FIELDS (5) is a filly by Stay Inside who was an expensive purchase for the Maher yard out of a handy Irish mare. She's jumped out well and trialled nicely too, expecting a strong run. LADY MOLLY (4) was in the market in a handy maiden on debut here but dropped right out. Can do better but not sure another heavy track run helps. MADAME ADELAIDE (6) rounds out the quartet off a jumpout win for the Dale yard.
