Best Bet
Taunting looks a good thing in the last and it would not surprise if he starts red figures. The four year old is a true specialist short courser and with his impressive record of four wins from ten starts, looks a class above these. The gelding trialled superbly and will get every chance from barrier two.
Recommended Price: $2.00
Confidence Level: 4.5/5

Wolverine drops out of Group 1 and 2 company for the first time since coming to Australia. The Kiwi, a Group 2 winner in her homeland, has done her racing against the creme de la creme of the fillies and this is a much easier race, but she is well treated under the set weights. Beaten less than two lengths in the Surround Stakes last start, this looks her race.

If Chalk Stream hadn’t run last start he probably goes around single figures here. It was an awful performance, but at no stage did the HM The King owned import looked comfortable around Moonee Valley. Chris Waller has given him a jumpout since and his prior form – an impressive win in the Australia Day Cup at Warwick Farm – gives the impression he would run a strong two miles.
