Mystic Reign, Manolo Bling and Delicate Lady will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Shadhavar and Don't Russia. MYSTIC REIGN (4) is the big watch here, resuming for the Grahame Begg yard and unbeaten in three runs to date. She's led throughout at all three, winning quite well in this grade at Flemington before a spell. Takes on some handy types here but the stable are elite with these sorts of horses and she looks a good each way bet. SHADHAVAR (6) was well backed here first up in a similar race but was just fair, fading late. She'll strip fitter for that and is worth another chance. MANOLO BLING (1) was poor last time but not beaten all that far and her best form prior is rock solid for this. Not discounting KEENI (11) at huge odds for exotics. She's run good late splits in both starts to date. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mystic Reign to win.
