Group 3 placegetter COMMEMORATIVE (11) made a strong late bid only to just miss when when resuming as favourite last start over 5½f in the G3 Toy Show Quality at Randwick. Will take a lot from that hitout. This is the right race and she can get the job done. REY MAGNERIO (12) returns from a layoff of five months. Scored over 5½f at Pakenham Synthetic to launch the last campaign. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. ASHFORD STREET (5) hasn't been far away lately, beaten 2.75 lengths at his most recent appearance when eighth over 5f in the LR Carlyon Stakes at Moonee Valley. Well placed in this easier race. Sure to be competitive. Group 3 winner IT'SOURTIME (2) finished fifth last time out over 6f at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Is very effective at this distance with two wins from seven runs. One of the contenders.
