Genuine tempo with Invincible Phantom leading the way. INVINCIBLE PHANTOM (2) well bred filly who wasn't far away on debut when a narrow fourth to Stromland over 1000m at Randwick Kensington. Would have come on with that run under the belt and expected to go close. ALABAMA CHARM (5) second of the Baker runners having her fourth career run. Two runs back have been sound, including latest second over 1100m at Gosford. Hard fit and ready to win. SPLASH OF STEEL (4) had excuses at all three runs and comes here in peak condition. Warmed up late in the heavy going when a slashing third over 1000m at Scone. Capable of finishing over the top of these. TRY ME (14) Written By filly from a Stratum mare on debut for the Howlett stable. Has shown ability in both trials and must be kept safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Invincible Phantom to go close.
