TAB We're On
ALMA RISE (9) resumes. She showed plenty of staying promise in her three run maiden campaign, winning her maiden by five lengths second time out at Pakenham before running second in the St Leger. Has to take that next step but can do so. LE MANS (3) hit the line nicely fresh before another sound effort at Moonee Valley. Up to 1800m suits and the inside draw could see her sit closer. WAIMARIE (2) continues to race well, winning two in a row prior to last start when only half a length away. She'll give a sight. LIEVORE (6) has placed in her past three and should run well again. BASILINNA (1) has plenty of class and that will take her a long way.
