Without a great deal of early pace evident Pajanti may lead the way over Harlow Mist. PIPPIE BEACH (5) worked into the race before the corner then went on to edge out the smart Mergeila last Wednesday when second-up over 1300m at Rosehill. Had a short turnaround between the second and third runs last prep and won both. The testing material again. ZARROSE (2) faced defeat for the first time in her five runs at this distance when beaten 2.5 lengths in the Group 3 Tibbie at Newcastle last time out. Faces her easiest assignment since a first-up win back in July. Definite contender. Dual Group 3 placegetter FRENCH ENDEAVOUR (1) was beaten narrowly when resuming over 1300m at Warwick Farm a fortnight ago. Better than these on her best figures so she makes plenty of appeal with the run under the belt and McDonald taking over. TERRESTAR (6) resumed in the same race as French Endeavour at the Farm and finished 1.3 lengths behind that mare. Has never fired when fresh so it was encouraging. Likely improver. PAJANTI (3) is back in grade and worth another chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pippie Beach on top in a very strong midweek contest.
