Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE ITALIAN DREAM (8) possesses a brilliant turn of foot and has the best sectional times in this event. Last start, she charged home but simply gave her rivals too much start. She will need to find the right gaps from the inside of the second row. POPPY POPSTAR (6) is a very talented mare at her best. She has finished in the top three at 12 of her past 14 starts and continues to race well. NO TELLING HEATHER (5) has returned to good form, breaking back into the winners' list three starts ago. With the right run, she is a genuine first four chance. SHES SKY HIGH (9) is the highest-rated horse in the field and benefits from the claim of Tasmyn Potter. She should appreciate the barrier, which will allow her to settle early, while the drop in class is another positive. Also respecting CHAMPAGNES (2), who continues to finish in the money when she trots throughout. She rises in class here, making the task tougher, but has the ability to measure up again.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE ITALIAN DREAM (8) possesses a brilliant turn of foot and has the best sectional times in this event. Last start, she charged home but simply gave her rivals too much start. She will need to find the right gaps from the inside of the second row. POPPY POPSTAR (6) is a very talented mare at her best. She has finished in the top three at 12 of her past 14 starts and continues to race well. NO TELLING HEATHER (5) has returned to good form, breaking back into the winners' list three starts ago. With the right run, she is a genuine first four chance. SHES SKY HIGH (9) is the highest-rated horse in the field and benefits from the claim of Tasmyn Potter. She should appreciate the barrier, which will allow her to settle early, while the drop in class is another positive. Also respecting CHAMPAGNES (2), who continues to finish in the money when she trots throughout. She rises in class here, making the task tougher, but has the ability to measure up again.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE ITALIAN DREAM (8) possesses a brilliant turn of foot and has the best sectional times in this event. Last start, she charged home but simply gave her rivals too much start. She will need to find the right gaps from the inside of the second row. POPPY POPSTAR (6) is a very talented mare at her best. She has finished in the top three at 12 of her past 14 starts and continues to race well. NO TELLING HEATHER (5) has returned to good form, breaking back into the winners' list three starts ago. With the right run, she is a genuine first four chance. SHES SKY HIGH (9) is the highest-rated horse in the field and benefits from the claim of Tasmyn Potter. She should appreciate the barrier, which will allow her to settle early, while the drop in class is another positive. Also respecting CHAMPAGNES (2), who continues to finish in the money when she trots throughout. She rises in class here, making the task tougher, but has the ability to measure up again.
