Abundant pace from Bubbles Up, Seastraand and Jaegers vying for the lead with Beverly Hills on their backs. MAYBE MOET (2) was backed off the map winning a 62 easily at Canterbury and then went back and was beaten a whisker over 1200m this level as a $2 favourite. Peaks and Berry rides today and has won on the mare. She can bounce straight back. BUBBLES UP (12) led and delivered a Rosehill Maiden as expected on debut. Draws wide but has a stack of gate speed and Clark will have her on the bunny. She's promising and is sure to give a big sight. BURJ (1) draws outside the above and has the choice to skip across with her. Led all the way this level over 1250m at Canterbury last time and keeps improving. Can make the finish with average luck. SPACEBALLS (5) and SEASTRAAND (10) are both racing well and can't be ruled out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Maybe Moet to win.
