Without a recognised leader, Sweet Treats and Spirit Of Camelot will likely set the pace. AUTUMN DREAM (3) made steady inroads from before the corner to get up for second when resuming over this course and distance a fortnight ago. Yet to miss the placings in three runs at this circuit. At the weights looks a great chance to go one better. ZIELLE (5) has raced twice this prep, both over shorter journeys at Goulburn, and found the line with purpose each time. Very fit now and gets some serious weight relief. Can feature in the finish. VIENNA VIXEN (2) ran her best race for quite a while when runner-up in a similar race to this here four weeks ago. Stanley's 3 kg claim gives her a definite chance. Handy ex-South Australian mare SPIRIT OF CAMELOT (1) made an inauspicious start to the new phase of her career under Peter Snowden when safely held over 1250m at Canterbury recently. Draws a much better gate and has won two of three at 1400m so we might see a different horse today. Handy mare RILEYCAT (4) was an easy winner at Goulburn last time and is worth including in exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Autumn Dream on top.
