KINGMAKER (11) kicked off his campaign with three placings including a second to topliner Don Hugo two back before breaking through last week, working to find the front and going on to score by 1.6m at this circuit and distance. The outside barrier poses a tougher challenge but he is going well. STENO (4) has had four weeks off since she was down the track at Group 1 level last time but has won a trial here since and had kicked off her campaign with a G3 win so is capable of much better. THE ANSWER (3) came from the outside barrier for a resuming second before digging deep to win last time, taking her strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. The low draw sees her right in contention again. HELLUVA (7) has tackled Miracle Mile qualifiers in both outings since his fifth in the Hunter Cup so is better placed. FORTY LOVE (1) was quite consistent before the last attempt and gets the ace draw again so improvement would not surprise.

Race comment
KINGMAKER (11) kicked off his campaign with three placings including a second to topliner Don Hugo two back before breaking through last week, working to find the front and going on to score by 1.6m at this circuit and distance. The outside barrier poses a tougher challenge but he is going well. STENO (4) has had four weeks off since she was down the track at Group 1 level last time but has won a trial here since and had kicked off her campaign with a G3 win so is capable of much better. THE ANSWER (3) came from the outside barrier for a resuming second before digging deep to win last time, taking her strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. The low draw sees her right in contention again. HELLUVA (7) has tackled Miracle Mile qualifiers in both outings since his fifth in the Hunter Cup so is better placed. FORTY LOVE (1) was quite consistent before the last attempt and gets the ace draw again so improvement would not surprise.

KINGMAKER (11) kicked off his campaign with three placings including a second to topliner Don Hugo two back before breaking through last week, working to find the front and going on to score by 1.6m at this circuit and distance. The outside barrier poses a tougher challenge but he is going well. STENO (4) has had four weeks off since she was down the track at Group 1 level last time but has won a trial here since and had kicked off her campaign with a G3 win so is capable of much better. THE ANSWER (3) came from the outside barrier for a resuming second before digging deep to win last time, taking her strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. The low draw sees her right in contention again. HELLUVA (7) has tackled Miracle Mile qualifiers in both outings since his fifth in the Hunter Cup so is better placed. FORTY LOVE (1) was quite consistent before the last attempt and gets the ace draw again so improvement would not surprise.

Race comment
KINGMAKER (11) kicked off his campaign with three placings including a second to topliner Don Hugo two back before breaking through last week, working to find the front and going on to score by 1.6m at this circuit and distance. The outside barrier poses a tougher challenge but he is going well. STENO (4) has had four weeks off since she was down the track at Group 1 level last time but has won a trial here since and had kicked off her campaign with a G3 win so is capable of much better. THE ANSWER (3) came from the outside barrier for a resuming second before digging deep to win last time, taking her strike rate at this circuit and distance to 50 per cent. The low draw sees her right in contention again. HELLUVA (7) has tackled Miracle Mile qualifiers in both outings since his fifth in the Hunter Cup so is better placed. FORTY LOVE (1) was quite consistent before the last attempt and gets the ace draw again so improvement would not surprise.
