THE SCHWEPPERVESCENCE PLATE
Results
BARBER (1) needs to show something here. Not sure back to 1000m is ideal but he does bring the best form into this. He was strong late first up behind Ozzmosis before an even effort last time in the G2 Roman Consul. Much easier here, gets McDonald on, it's D-Day. STANISLAUS (3) was behind Barber when they met at Rosehill but has since beaten the older horses with a tough effort. Handy type who should run well here. WIGGUM (5) brings different form from South Australia but has talent and looks progressive. Doesn't need to improve much to be in the finish. REVALENE (8) has run second at both starts to date against two smart types and should be thereabouts. CAPITALISATION (9) broke through for a dominant maiden win last time and had run second to stakes winner Gumdrops prior. In the mix.

Group 3 winner. Third-up today. First-up eased back early on 5th of 8 at Rosehill in the LR Heritage on September 23 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Ozzmosis carrying 58.5kg at $5.50. Second run from a spell 6th of 8 at Rosehill in the G2 Rom Consul on October 7 over 1200m, 2 len behind King's Gambit carrying 56.5kg at $6. Brings the right form and if he runs to his best he'll go close.
Group 3 winner. Last start 5th of 10 at Hamilton Bm70 on October 14 over 1100m, 6 len behind Mawallock carrying 55.5kg at $21. The race before that raced on the speed throughout before fading second last of 8 at Mornington Bm70 on September 30 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Lempicka carrying 57.5kg at $14. Can't recommend against this lot.
Resumes off a 31 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by a nose at Rosehill Bm78 October 7 over 1100m defeating Way To The Stars with 52kg at $3.30. The start before that second last of 8 at Rosehill in the LR Heritage on September 23 over 1100m, 2.75 len behind Ozzmosis carrying 56kg at $21. Too strong last time and can go on with it.
Going well. Most recently won by 1.3 len at Cranbourne 3yo Bm64 October 13 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Lordster with 61kg at $4.50. The race before that second last in a small field at Sandown-Hillside 3yo Bm64 on September 6 over 1300m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Southport Tycoon carrying 60kg at $6.50. In the each-way mix.
Third-up today. Resuming won by 1.3 len at Murray Bridge 3yo Bm62 October 7 over 1000m defeating Give Some Lip with 60.5kg at $3. Second run from a spell 2nd of 7 at Morphettville 3yo Bm66 on October 21 over 1100m, nose behind Deepfloat Diva with 60.5kg at $3.30. Brings some different form but has talent, don't dismiss lightly.
Useful type. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at Caulfield in the LR Gothic Stakes on October 21 over 1200m, 3 len behind Arkansaw Kid with 56kg at $41. The race before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2.25 len at Moe Bm64 September 28 over 1017m defeating Not Enough Effort carrying 56.5kg at $5. Can give a sight.
Most recently 4th of 8 at Moonee Valley 3yo Bm70 on October 27 over 1000m, 2.25 len behind Celui carrying 58.5kg at $17. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.25 len at Pakenham Synthetic Bm58 October 9 over 1000m defeating Beldivian carrying 59.5kg at $2. Unlikely.
Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 10 at Cranbourne Mdn-Sw on September 21 over 1000m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Excess carrying 57kg at $4. Second-up 2nd of 8 at Moonee Valley 3yo Bm70 on October 27 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Celui carrying 56kg at $3. Progressing nicely, should be thereabouts.
At the latest run won by 2 len at Moe 3yo Mdn-Sw October 20 over 1100m on a rain affected track defeating Silver Hammer with 58kg at $3.30. The start before that held ground to the line 2nd of 13 at Ballarat Mdn-Sw on October 2 over 1100m, 0.8 len behind Gumdrops carrying 57kg at $4. Coming along well and he can measure up.
Second-up. First-up after six months ran last of 10 at Moonee Valley in the LR Crockett on October 28 over 1200m, 12 len behind Gumdrops with 56kg at $101. Previously second-up second last of 9 at Gosford 2yo Hcp on May 6 over 1200m, 5 len behind Chrysaor carrying 55kg at $26. Unlikely to threaten.
