In good hands for its debut run and it comes off two trial wins. That's tough to overlook and we're surprised that it's not the favourite.

Won
F: 8xB(5)W(56.5)
( J-Jason Collett )

3 Zing To Me
F: 2xB(1)W(57.5)
( J-Tom Sherry )
( T-Peter Snowden )
Another well-backed runner. Second on debut before spelling, and it comes off a trial win. Inside draw is ideal and it adds more depth to a tough field.
Consider
2 Enchanted World
F: 2B(3)W(57.5)
( J-Dylan Gibbons )
( T-Kris Lees )
It also finished second on debut and it has plenty of upside. That came in a moderate field but it's good enough to improve and go close.

Won
F: 3x15B(3)W(59.0)
( J-Jason Collett )

7 Now You've Done It
F: 34x1B(5)W(56.0)
( J-Rachel King )
( T-Matthew Vella )

Longer Odds
2 Donwon
F: 4x251B(1)W(59.0)
( J-Coriah Keatings )
( T-Ross McConville )
Another recent winner that should have its confidence levels rising. Inside draw with 3kg off its back helps.

4 Louisburgh
F: 38x22B(6)W(59.0)
( J-Tom Sherry )
( T-Annabel & Rob Archibald )

Place
F: x2263B(6)W(59.0)
( J-Jenny Duggan )
( T-Kristen Buchanan )

Consider
9 Valentiago
F: 6xB(4)W(56.5)
( J-Reece Jones )
( T-Peter Snowden )
Sixth on debut at Newcastle before spelling. It comes off a heavy track placing and it could sneak under the radar. In good hands and the odds are nice.

Disappointing last time out but it should be better for the run. 55kg on its back is ideal and we're happy to give it another chance at the odds.
Main Danger
2 Golden Smile
F: 33215B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Andrew Gibbons )
( T-Kris Lees )
A winner two back at Newcastle before finishing fifth at Randwick. Having that experience helps, and the money has come for it.

F: 38245B(8)W(55.0)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )

Never too far away from the mark and it doesn't need to improve too much to win. It has form on soft tracks, so include at the price.

3 Kahraba
F: 4x583B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Olivia Chambers )

Won
F: 2x2xB(7)W(60.0)
( J-Zac Lloyd )
( T-John O'Shea & Tom Charlton )
Two starts for two second placings, including one in New Zealand. Looks set to break through in Aus, and the short odds are evident of that.
Main Danger
6 Ivy Legend
F: 42647B(5)W(56.5)
( J-Dylan Gibbons )
( T-M, W & J Hawkes )
Still in its first preparation and connections are sticking with the plan. It has shown enough at times to consider against this field.

F: 57x22B(1)W(55.5)
( J-Louis-Philippe Beuzelin )

Dividend : $1.40
Place
F: 37x33B(4)W(59.5)
( J-Braith Nock )
( T-Ciaron Maher )

Longer Odds
4 Dear Frank
F: 7xB(6)W(59.0)
( J-Ashley Morgan )
( T-Clarry Conners )
Didn't fire on debut but it has since been prepared with two trials. Could spark up on race day.
