Verdict

DOCTOR JAY (7) bolted in last start after settling back in the field and now rises to 1650m for the first time. The rise in trip doesn't look an issue off what we've seen recently and he looks ready to raise the bar once again. Tougher now but he's up to the task and he can bring up back-to-back wins. ANTIQUE STAR (8) is on the quick turnaround after a 0.7L victory here as the race favourite. The 3kg claim comes in handy as she gets in light and she showed good tactical speed last time out. Rates highly off last week's effort and she can play a key role once again. SHMOOV MOOVA (1) finished behind the impressive Cosmic Crusader last start when railing through for second in gross conditions. Out to the mile now for the first time, but he looks capable and the formlines read well for a race like this. TWILIGHT TALE (10) was strong late last start and now gets the blinkers on. Watch for her late. ODINAKA (4) was too good last start beating Twilight Tale and has to be included.
