THE GREAT HOUDINI (6) has been kept fresh since running below par last time, finishing seventh over 6¼f at Randwick Kensington. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will prove tough to beat. VALIANCY (9) has had two runs since a break, the latest a eighth over 6f at Warwick Farm, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has a solid record at the third run in so she is among the leading chances. AMNESTY (2) dropped out from the rails draw before closing late to finish fifth over 5f at Randwick last start. Outdashed but got home well and looks suited by the extra ground. Can run on into the finish here. MOLLY NAILS (4) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Warwick Farm, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths over 6f. Deserves another chance.
