From the wide draw M'lady Rose can cross and set up a solid tempo. M'LADY ROSE (11) continued her fine form this prep when beaten narrowly over 2082m at Moe last start. Relished that first test beyond the mile. Can improve further with that run under the belt and a well-deserved win looks on the cards. The danger is THE MUFFIN MAN (1) who got out to a more suitable journey last time and found the line well to finish fourth over 2016m at Ballarat. Rock hard fit after three runs back and this trip is ideal. NOTHIN' WONG HERE (7) had racked up six minor placings in seven runs before a tough breakthrough win in a 2000m Stawell maiden recently. Enjoyed a colder ride that day and with the confidence up might pay to follow. MADAME LEXIS (12) has struggled to make an impact at her last few runs in longer staying contests. Very fit and will get through the line strongly. ADJUDICATE (2) is at his best at or around today's journey. Recent form is certainly good enough to make him competitive here. SUGGESTED PLAY: M'Lady Rose to win with a saver on The Muffin Man.
