Genuine tempo with Hughie's Spirit and Champagne Express leading the way. Open race. RACEY CASEY (13) is going well, tackling a stronger maiden at Caulfield Heath when last seen 60 days ago. Her form prior over this sort of trip was rock solid as well and the freshen up can see her improve and take beating. ANTALIAN (9) is coming close to the elusive maiden win, putting in her best effort to date last start at Werribee when battling on well for second. No issues back to 1200m and she'll be hard to hold out. CHAMPAGNE EXPRESS (10) was a bit disappointing at Seymour second up but had been okay fresh and her form last time in warrants plenty of respect. BJARNE (1) resumes. Five runs in his maiden campaign were encouraging and he can improve this time around. ONE MORE STAR (11) similarly can do better into her second campaign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Racey Casey to win.
