G1 – 1600m – Turf

1 Frozen Fantasy Her recent form has been uninspiring but that could be due to bad draws. She jumps from the plum draw of one and could get much closer this time around.
2 World Of Alice Has been holding solid form in recent starts. She does take on strong company but the expectations are very high and Sean Tarry will have her primed for this Group 1 contest.
3 Sorceress Supreme Modest run in last two starts in feature races after winning her maiden easily. Will need to find a bit to feature in this contest however does have a rider aboard who is in top form.
4 Whistle The Tune A very interesting runner who represents some decent form lines of some of the top juveniles around.  She does have a decent enough draw and Richard Fourie stays aboard which speaks volumes.
5 Scars Of War Has been consistently finishing in the money on overall form. Won impressively to break maiden in May. This will be her biggest test to date, may enjoy the step up in trip.
6 Visionofpeace Won a gutsy race in her last start in FM64 handicap at 10-1. She takes a huge jump in class and will find this extremely tough. Needs to up her game here.
7 Fatal Flaw Ran an absolute cracker in her last start from a bad draw. It was an eye-catching performance taking into account she was returning from a slight break so will be much sharper now, include in all bets.
8 Varvara Well beaten in her last start over the 1400m trip. Steps up to 1600m now and comes from a yard who are in top form so is worth including in larger perms.
9 Spirit Of Levana Has won two in a row and looks a very progressive type. She was very gutsy in her last start and was challenged all the way to line however continued to find more so must be respected.
10 Honorable Member Takes a huge rise in class now. Her form cannot be faulted in weaker company respectfully however she has a bit to find in this company as well as a wide draw to deal with.
11 Forward Motion Highly regarded by the yard as she ran in a Listed still being a maiden and didn’t disgrace herself. Won comfortably in a maiden last start and there could be more to come however has a tough draw.
12 Quid Pro Quo Clearly a very special horse with tons of ability and class. In recent runs she has shown a smart turn of foot making up ground from well back in the field so could take some beating despite the wide draw.
13 Lock And Key Unbeaten horse who gets the services of Keagan De Melo. Performed well when carrying 128lb against some hard knockers last start. Have to deal with the widest draw but could be anything and can’t be ignored.
