Race Overview

Very tricky. QUEEN OF THE BALL (2) might be an improver. Her past two runs have been at 1200m which I don't think she quite gets. The first up run over 1100m when beaten a head by Parisal reads well for this. She should be able to roll along and stick on well. ROSE QUARTZ (6) has run second in both runs this time in, good behind a smart mare in She Dances at Caulfield last time. Back to 1100m from an inside draw is a slight knock but she rates highly. ZAPATEO (1) is tricky. She's been below her best in all three runs this time in, albeit in some strong races. Her best would win if she can bounce back. HYPOTHETICAL (8) is racing well and will be on speed and thereabouts. AITCH TWO OH (3) is a winner down the straight and isn't hopeless at odds.
