Cracking tempo with Lady's Choice and Bottomuptogether leading the way. PATCH OF STARS (7) is looking for the hat-trick, landing close to the speed and getting the job done by 0.3L most recently in this grade. He jumped favourite there and the form out of the race has stood up. He's had a quiet trial to keep him up to the mark and he looks the one to beat again. CRIMSON FLASH (9) won well fresh over the 1000m and backed up that performance most recently when up to this grade. Out to 1200m again now which looks a good move and he profiles well for a race like this. The inside draw is a big tick and he appears the main danger. LADY'S CHOICE (5) wasn't beaten far by Patch Of Stars two back before dropping back in distance last time out. Up to 1200m again now is a big tick and he maps for a kind run. Can bounce back to his best form which will see him hard to hold out. INVINCIBLE SHIELD (4) was sound last start on the All Weather but his run here two back was very good. Can feature once again.
