Verdict

SOUTHERN FIRETAIL (14) looks a very nice horse on the way up, closing impressively over the mile last start to win easily. He loses Pike, but he comes here with stacks of upside. Likely to flop out the back, but he can round these up as he continues to work through the grades. ANTIQUE QUEEN (8) stuck on well over 1400m here last start after a long break. She'll be better for that effort and getting out in trip should suit her now. Can sit a touch closer from an inside draw this time around and can put herself in the finish. TRIPLE THE CHANT (6) is third-up now and gets the blinkers on for the first time. She's a third-up winner in the past and she gets Brad Parnham in the saddle now. She's a mare on the rise and a forward showing is on the cards. ELEGANT INDI (12) won well over an unsuitable trip fresh and there's no reason why she can't go on with the job. IMPRESSIVE JEWEL (7) looks well placed on her last start win and can be in the finish yet again.
