Masina and Lychee Green Tea look to take it up. VILLE DE LUMIERE (9) resumed in good order at Horsham and then raced as the favourite again at Terang over 1250m and was beaten a nose. It was a tough effort from a wide gate and she jumps from an inside alley today with Coffey a key jockey engagement. In a top barn, and she can go one better. OLIVIA'S SCANDAL (7) brings a half-length defeat from Warracknabeal, over 1200m in stronger. Has two wins over this journey and maps for run of the race. Will be at peak fitness and can make the finish. SILVALOA (1) was beaten 3.5 lengths in a 1400m contest at Bendigo two-and-a-half weeks ago. Had raced in Stakes grade in Canberra prior and comes back in grade. Has to be kept onside. CHOSEN VENTURE (5) won at Kerang as expected in a 52 over shorter. Maps has won this course/distance. In the mix. HIGHLY INTRIGUED (3) resumes and has jumped out sharply 3x. Has Rawiller aboard and keep an eye on the betting with her. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Ville De Lumiere.
