ROADCONE (11) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fourth beaten 2 lengths over 1400m at Echuca. Will find this assignment a little tougher but he should run well. BAVICIA (13) is returning from a spell of 13 months. Finished fifth at Bendigo over 1600m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman. Placed in a recent trial. Leading hope and should be tough to stop. QUEEN OF TUSCANY (12) continued the good recent form when she finished just a neck away in second last time out over 1400m at this track. Has never been out of the money in six starts here at this trip, including a win. One of the main contenders. OUTTA COMPTON (1) is progressing well this preparation, scoring by 2.25 lengths last time out over 1400m at Ballarat. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
