ILLATIVE (9) impressed first-up then took on a much better race last time when fifth over 1200m in the G3 Proud Miss Stakes at Morphettville. Well placed to make amends. LUNA CAT (1) tackled stakes class last time and was beaten 9 lengths into tenth over 1200m in the LR The Wangoom at Warrnambool. Today's rider Jaylah Kennedy has a decent record aboard this six-year-old mare so she is among the winning hopes. ZEBELLA (7) hasn't been far away lately, beaten 3 lengths at her most recent outing when sixth over 1200m at Flemington. Lachlan Neindorf has scored on her two times and is back in the saddle. Expected to measure up. IMPENDING SHADOW (10) opened this campaign with a win two runs back then finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in ninth last start over 1200m at Flemington. Can do much better this time.
