Verdict
NEW VOCATION finally opened her account with a victory over track and trip and beating Another Dressin, now blinkered, in the process. She’s gone back up the weights but another bold bid is expected now she’s got her head in front. Royal Admiral steps up in distance on his return to action having placed here on a couple of occasions last year while Yarraman has a shout on a recent second over 1m4f at the track. Ursus Belle and Indian Eye are the least exposed and may improve for this longer trip.
