Moderate pace with O Cara Mia rolling to the lead and setting the tempo. BRILLANTEZZA (10) is the one with upside who looks nicely placed at her third start. She looked very handy winning well by two lengths here on debut over 1590m before a good effort up in class at Pakenham when well backed. Like the rise in trip now and she should be very hard to hold out. CALL ME RHONDA (14) was a solid maiden winner two back at Stawell, good up to this trip last time at Kilmore when running into second. She draws for every chance and has winning claims. AZEOLA (13) resumed from a spell last start and did well to finish third at Kilmore over 1607m, 1.3 lengths from the winner. Should appreciate the extra distance second-up. In the mix. O CARA MIA (12) steps out to 2000m for the first time today after a modest effort last time out, finishing 5 lengths away in fifth over 1600m at Albury. Fitter and rates a chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Brillantezza to win.
