The race pace looks quite okay for this G1 for fillies and mares over a Mile. MUSTANG VALLEY (2) is well drawn. Senior rider atop. Twice a winner when second up. Did well when resuming over 1400m at Tauranga last start, finishing second beaten a nose. G1 winner of Arrowfield Stud (Horlicks) Plate. Top tier must. BELCLARE (3) course proven. Trial winner earlier this month. Big chance. PEARL OF ALSACE (6) was a game winner fresh up. Unbeaten in two second up runs. Five-time winner at a Mile. FASHION SHOOT (4) the rider atop has won twice on the mare. This mare has won on dry and wet ground. GRAIL SEEKER (12) first try at G1. Never missed the top three at a Mile. Chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mustang Valley and Peal Of Alsace are win wagers.
