WAVE BREAKER (11) is a talented filly who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 6 lengths behind Summer Flame over 1100m in the LR Denise's Joy Stakes at Scone. This looks a more suitable assignment. APEX (3) did his best work late to score by 1.2 lengths at the most recent appearance over 1100m at Warwick Farm at the second run this prep. Big chance to keep the fine form going. STRAAND BEAUTY (10) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish third, beaten half a length, over 1250m at this track. Among the main hopes. THE GREAT HOUDINI (1) kicked off this campaign with a win then was less impressive last time out when sixth over 1200m at Gosford, beaten 4 lengths. In the mix.
