Strong pace from Astral Flame, Didn't Miss Many and Khadime, with Maldini and Northwood Vamoose on their heels. Keen on ASTRAL FLAME (3) who has always promised plenty of ability, delivering last time with a smart win in a good BM70 at Geelong, scoring by a length. Like that Jamie Mott goes aboard and with any luck early she can be winning again. KHADIME (11) has mixed her form this time in but her best is good enough and she sets up well from the gate having run a good second at Seymour two back. MALDINI (12) has just found one better in both runs this time in and should be at peak fitness now. He's got upside and can win if they roll forward from the wide gate. VIXENETTE (9) is off a smart win and can measure up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Astral Flame to win.
