Genuine tempo with Real Heir to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. MISS DECEIVER (13) returns after four months off. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1400m at Warrnambool, but it took the VRC Oaks winner to beat her the start prior and there was a lot to like about the way she put her rivals away in her most recent jumpout. CONFLICT (15) also ran well in all runs in the debut prep and has jumped out well. Was also an acceptor in a winnable race at Kyneton on Friday, so if they run here it's a good push for his chances. YULE POINT (9) returned last time with a solid second at Wangaratta over 1170m. He'll have come on from that and with the majority of the field either first-up or on debut, the run under the belt could prove crucial. TWO TO TANGO (14) disappointed when well-supported on debut but had trialled well before that, and has again done so since, so warrants another chance. I'M DA BOSS (1) is on debut, but swept home from last to win his latest jumpout which could be good training for this given the wide draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Deceiver to win.
