Solid tempo with The Mona Lisa possessing enough dash to find the front. INDECISIVE (1) seven start maiden resuming after placing in town last preparation. Given two trials in readiness for this and finds a very weak maiden to get off the mark from the low draw. THE FORT (8) Godolphin filly who comes up from Victoria with a fitness edge over some of these. Motored late from the wide gate when a narrow third over 1000m at Werribee. Clearly developed further and no shock to see her settle a little closer to the speed. Genuine contender. RARE MOON (11) frustrating filly who chipped away late on resumption when an even fifth over 900m at Muswellbrook. A repeat of her latest performance will see her take a hand in the finish. POWER OVERREACH (5) never comfortable in the heavy (8) going when returning with a battling fourth over 1000m at Nowra. Gets some nice weight relief with the claim and adds value to the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Indecisive to win.
