BELLE OF THE NILE has shown most in the way of promise from her three starts in maiden company and with further improvement to come, she could take all the beating. Silent Passion is expected to have come on for her debut while Blues Dancing is interesting on her first start.
MEDIDOCIHOSPISURG scored in the $125,000 Elgin Stakes here two starts ago and despite a somewhat lacklustre effort when last sighted, he is worth another look in this company. Darling Delilah appeals most at each-way terms while Catch The Luck also warrants respect.
DIAMONDSDIPLOMAT got the better of Middle Of The Nite here in September when the Paul Fung charge was unlucky not to score. A repeat performance will surely see the three-year-old go close but don't discount Cold Harbor, who continues to make the frame.
WISH FOR SUCCESS has shaped with promise on her two career starts to date and is taken to make it third time lucky for William Tharrenos. She is expected to have improved again while of the others, Mega Precious and Asian Odyssey make most appeal.
WOOKINWICKED was promoted into second when last sighted, in place of the reopposing Inspired Devil, and with a clear run that day, the Sid Attard charge may have gotten closer to the eventual winner. Burleigh remains unexposed and is one to be wary of while Escape Pod arrives here with a similar profile.
Town Of Towns and Grapes were both placed in this grade last time and should be thereabouts again but it's worth siding with DISTORTED DAVE, who takes a big drop in class tonight.
This should go the way of PLATINE, a close second here in a slightly-tougher race last time and open to further improvement after just four starts. The danger looks to be Bellamy Blues, on a hat-trick at this track, while Hint Of Lemon could also run well.
ALDOUS SNOW takes a big step-up in class following his win here (Hampstead Heath second) in a $67k maiden special weight over a mile on his debut but this son of Theatrical looks open to plenty of improvement and could take all the beating. Maritimer and Hard Not To Like can fight out the minor placings.
HIDDEN PROFIT was a good winner of a $56k maiden special weight over C&D last time after finishing well behind Chief Executive on his previous start. He's far less exposed than his rival, however, and can reverse the placings on his way to landing this. Little Mister Woo has form at this level and should be thereabouts.
