RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: FRENCH MISSILE (7) resumes after taking on elite three-year-old fillies throughout her previous campaign in black-type races. She’s had several recent trials, winning two at Bacchus Marsh, and this trainer-driver combination has an excellent strike rate. If she trots cleanly, she should prove very hard to beat. MISS HOLLY RED (6) has led and placed at her past three starts and looks capable of finding the top again. Her fitness and reliability are major assets if some of the key rivals make mistakes. BIG RAIN (2) resumes after trialling behind French Missile on two occasions and her previous campaign form was solid. KYVALLEY REEVA (1) debuts here and while her trials haven’t been spectacular, this is a race where exposed form is questionable.
