Race Tip
VIA SISTINA (10) has scored at her last two starts, most recently by 8 lengths over 1m2 1/4f in the G1 WS Cox Plate at Moonee Valley. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from four starts. Can measure up again. DUKE DE SESSA (2) was quickly into stride over 1m4f in the G1 Caulfield Cup last time and defied all challengers to score by 1.3 lengths. Has the ability to figure prominently. ELIYASS (6) was in the money over this distance in a then stepped out over more ground last time and struggled when seventh in the G1 Caulfield Cup. Leading chance in this more suitable race. ATISHU (11) was a winner over 1m in the G1 Empire Rose Stakes at this track last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by a head. Has a solid record at this circuit. Worth considering.
