Nice trip on the markers last week granted, but He\u2019s My Creation\u2019s (7) effort was full of merit given the depth of that field. This one is nowhere near that and if the manners are there and a nice trip unfolds then should be a little too good for them.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

Trending back in the right direction judging by last week\u2019s good effort, Moonlite Blood (8) looks a good play here. Talented horse on his day and has just taken a bit of adjusting to the higher grades. Has real speed when needed and could sit off them and look to pounce in a very even field.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

Beaten by a\u00a0<\/span>pretty handy<\/span>\u00a0one last week, Mostert (8) lost no admirers and went down fighting right to the line too. Wide draw here, but likely to look to roll forward and get onto the speed and if able to control\u00a0<\/span>things<\/span>\u00a0then becomes the horse to beat with the fitness and confidence levels high.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
