SCION (3) was thereabouts last time out when second at Grafton over 5½f, beaten 0.6 lengths. Should be at his peak now. Big chance to score. PETTICOAT (2) was safely held when fifth last start over 5f at Eagle Farm, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a good win on debut at Newcastle. Finds a suitable assignment and can rediscover winning form. SPICY DUCK (1) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Ipswich, finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths over 4f after being in the firing line on the bend. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. SHAMADAN (7) is a Tassort filly who was an AUD $ 22,000 (Magic Millions 2023 Adelaide Yearling Sale) purchase. Has had the benefit of a trial. Can figure in the finish.
