ASHMOLEAN (10) is resuming from a spell where she would have matured nicely. She showed some ability in her last campaign and local trainer Mark Currie is sure to have her cherry-ripe for her return. Samantha Collett in the irons is a bonus and she is capable of taking this out. PICADOR (3) started favourite here in his last start before going for a spell. He is locally trained and is worth following up. Use the markets as a guide when choosing a winner in this field. SEIRYU (9) has turned a corner recently and would not have to improve much in her last start effort for third to be winning this. I WANT THAT MAN (6) strips fitter second time and the extra furlong will be ideal. The winkers go on for the first time and he also benefits from a three-kilo claim. Each-way value. LA BELLA DIVA (7) will find this easier than her fresh-up run at Eagle Farm. Bubba Tilley steps into the irons and from a good gate, the pair merit healthy respect.
