GOING: S(5)

TAB MILITARY ROSE PLATE 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 23)   Rail: True. (Pent: 4.90)  

Amore Veloce is the likely leader at a slick tempo. EXOTIQUE MISS (5) took on the boys in open company when fresh from a spell over this trip at Eagle Farm last start and didn't finish too far away. Strips fitter and only goes up 1kg today. Beaten just 2.6 lengths in a Group 1 Tatts Tiara last prep so she has the class to take this out. GOSPEL GIRL (9) settled closer to the pace last time and held on well for third in a return to form over this distance at Eagle Farm. Live chance but will need a bit of luck from the tricky gate. CONSIDERED (1) made it five wins on the trot, and three this prep, when she dug deep to score in a Coffs Harbour NSW Country Championship qualifier over 1400m recently. The stable will have one eye on the final at Randwick on 4 April but this is a nice lead up race. ZOUBABY (8) gave the smart Taltarni Fields a fright at Doomben last start. Nicely drawn and should be about the mark. DRAGONNE ROUGE (3) was a bit flat-footed over 1000m last start and can be more effective at today's journey. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exotique Miss to win.
