Group 3 placegetter WAVERLEY (7) is a 11-start maiden who finished fifth after being in the firing line on the turn at his most recent appearance over 1m2 1/2f at Gosford. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. LADYKING (10) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 1.1 lengths, over 1m at Hawkesbury. Blinkers come off now. Sure to go well. Set Weights EET HEAVEN (11) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 2.25 lengths when fifth in a 7f contest at Randwick Kensington two-and-a-half weeks ago. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she is likely to play a big role. RHINESTONE LAD (6) was allowed to drift back from an outside draw last time but found the line strongly to finish fifth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1m1f at Hawkesbury. Among the chances and will be tough to stop.
