Going with CHERGUI (2) at each way odds. He was hard in the market on debut in a high rating race behind Pallaton before an even effort in the Lonhro Plate last time, again in the market. The Silver Slipper winner Beiwacht came out of that race and the Cummings team have turned the corner recently. SHINING SMILE (1) rates as one of the hardest to beat. He dead heated to win the Talindert Stakes here last time and the co-winner Tentyris has since placed in the Blue Diamond. Shining Smile takes the easier route and can be rewarded from it. CAVALRY GIRL (5) ties in with Shining Smile having won well here last time. She can go on with it. EXCENIA (8) is a nicely bred Exceed And Excel filly who has trialled well and can figure. MARSEPT (9) perhaps next best for the Hawkes camp.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming won by 1.75 len at Sandown-Lakeside LR Bd/Prev Cg January 25 over 1000m defeating Yamashita's Gold with 56kg at $1.65. Second run from a spell won by a nose at this track LR Talindert February 15 over 1100m defeating Brave Design carrying 59kg at $6.50. Sets the benchmark.
Third race start today. When well in the market at debut, sat on the pace when 2nd of 9 at Randwick 2yo SW on December 21 over 1000m, 2.75 len behind Pallaton with 57kg at $4. Second-up sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 11 at Randwick in the LR Lonhro on February 8 over 1000m, 6 len behind Bellazaine with 56kg at $3.70. Can run a big race.
Colt by Blue Point facing the starter for the first time. Has looked handy in his trials leading into this. Ran 3rd in a Flemington trial over 800m on February 21. Market should provide the best guide.
Two-year-old colt (Ole Kirk - Cool Passion) has jumped out on two occasions leading into today's race. Won a trial over 800m at Sandown-Hillside on February 12. Prefer to see under race conditions.
Since last run she has trialed at Warrnambool over 800m on 19/02/2025; Last start favourite; came from midfield and won by 1.5 len at this track 2yo Hcp January 18 over 1000m defeating Sword Of Legacy with 58kg at $3.80. Run before second of 9 at Geelong Geelong Diamond January 4 over 1100m, 2 len behind Cherish Me with 57kg at $5.50. Will take beating.
At debut, from last on the turn 4th of 8 at Sandown-Lakeside in the G3 Chairman's Stk on February 1 over 1000m, 3 len behind Inkaruna carrying 55kg at $18. Rough hope.
Was at a huge quote at debut, eased back early on 7th of 10 at this track in the LR Talindert on February 15 over 1100m, 5.5 len behind Shining Smile with 55kg at $201. Needs more time.

Filly by Written Tycoon on debut. Recent jump out form has been pretty solid. Runner-up in a Flemington trial over 800m on February 21. Can run well.
