3YO filly and Magic Night winner ALIZES has nothing on her back and looks great EW value. Has a good draw and scratched from Saturday to run in this.

Although her 2nd-up record is not that great, LEGALLY BAY does look well in at the weights and had no luck in the straight behind Fastnet Rock in the Oakleigh Plate when a close 3rd over this distance.

The fast pace should suit CHARGE FORWARD. 2nd-up record good and did hit the line strongly in the Challenge Stakes over 1000M behind rejuvenated speedster Impaler.

RED OOG put in best run of career when strong winner first-up over Presently who went on to win yesterday’s Hall Mark. 2nd-up record good.

Legally Bay has been freshened and is primed to run a huge race here. Her effort in the Oakleigh was first class and there will be similar speed to burn in this affair with SOF, SOL, Impaler, Alizes, the list goes on, which should really suit the backmarkers. She is probably the best weighted horse in the race and she will go very close.
