A solid tempo on the cards with Luvya Mumma heading them off. CHAMPAGNE JENNI (9) was very heavily supported in a stronger race at Flemington last time out, challenging for favouritism there when midfield to a progressive filly in Shockletz. The pace was strong on that occasion and up to 2400m now should be ideal. Can roll forward from a wide gate and take catching. ZINOVATION (8) is still a maiden but has been knocking on the door and the gap between maiden and this level isn't much at all. Maps well and can improve again. CECCHETTI (1) was just fair last time over this route but had been a solid maiden winner prior and could bounce back. MURGASTY (6) broke through for a strong maiden win at Cranbourne last time out and looks one capable of going on with it now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Champagne Jenni.
