OVERVIEW: IMPERIALS REASON (11) is resuming since a big win at Melton in March. She was racing in great form at Metropolitan level during her last campaign so she must be rated highly. OUR VINCENT CAN GOGH (1) has won four of his past six starts and competed against a strong field in the George Croxford Tribute last outing. He scored comfortably after leading throughout two starts ago and is likely to be prominent throughout. IM PRINCESS BELLA (2) performed well during the Mildura Cup Carnival then followed with handy efforts at Maryborough and Ballarat. She is a fast beginner and should give a bold showing. VILLACCI (10) will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment and should be finishing strongly. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,4 RATINGS: 11/ 1,2/ 10/ 5/ 9

He scored comfortably after leading throughout two starts ago and is likely to be prominent throughout.
