Verdict
Lady Algarhoud,Scarlet Invader, Danger Zone, and Silver Visage are a handful against the field in a wide open affair and the tentative vote is given to the last named. #The selection was a fair third behind Rosapenna last time out doing all her best work at the finish. The step up in trip looks sure to suit and off the same mark here she looks the value bet. Lady Algarhoud rates the main danger as she has been in the form of her life of late and won well last time when beating Owed. However she has yet to win off a mark this high before and at likely odds looks worth opposing. Scarlet Invader is another that could go well on her best form but he has ran as if in the handicappers grip of late and for that reason is opposed. Danger Zone is another that has been in fair form of late but she has yet to prove she acts on this surface and may be best watched. Of the remainder Triple Zero won well last time out but will find this harder under a penalty and in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Silver Visage.
