"From rising hope to elder statesman without any intervening period whatsoever" - that quip from British politician Michael Foot could aptly describe this mare, who last year was seen as one of the emerging talents of the Australian staying ranks and this year finds herself among the veterans. Sidelined after finishing ninth last year - which followed a win in the Geelong Cup as well as the Bagot Handicap earlier in the year - she has disappointed in three starts this campaign, although improving up to her right trip. She would give both trainer Symon Wilde and jockey Dean Yendall a first Cup.
