PLAY THE WHISTLE – 5YO best rating 2400m December 2000. Best distance range 1600m-2400m. 2200m is the furthest she has gone for a long while. Looks outclassed over this distance, however if she can lead & can get a big enough break, who knows - a rough hope.


OUR PARTISAN – 5YO maiden best rating over 1800m last month. Best distance range 1600m-2100m. Looks outclassed and most unlikely to make the final field.

NOW’S GOOD – 6YO best rating 2200m in July 2000. Yet to find any form at 5 starts since a 2 year spell. Totally outclassed on current form.

NOBLE TOUCH – 4YO who did early racing in NSW. Best rating over 1400m in September. Placed over 2200m a couple of times last month. Well beaten over 2400m to Higgins Gold last start after racing wide throughout. Better than a rough hope.

NOBLE SHEIKH – 7YO who originally raced in SA. Best rating over 2400m last month. Tends to run on but well beaten over 2400m last two starts. A rough hope.

KING JUGAH – 5YO front running stayer with some good recent form over 2200m / 2400m. Well beaten in the CB COX stakes on Saturday when he contested the lead with Super Moss. Big doubt over the 3200m but if he can lead & get a big enough break, who knows. A rough hope.


KING ELVIS – 5YO best city rating over 2200m in April this year. Last start winner class 4 2200m at Pinjarra beating King Jugah. Not raced beyond 2200m. Looks outclassed over this distance.

HIGGINS GOLD – 4YO best rating last start over 2400m mid December.
Lightly raced up and coming stayer, winner of 3 of last 4 starts including 2 wins at Ascot. One of the better chances, races like the extra distance will suit.

GILL’S DREAM – 6YO best rating over 1500m in April 2000. Best distance range 1500m-2200m. Races on the pace. Looks outclassed over this distance.

FUJIAMA – 8YO Originally from Victoria. Best rating over 2200m in November 2000. 5th in the 2001 Perth Cup beaten 4.25len by Lottila Bay. 4 starts back after a spell. Reasonable run on Saturday over 1800m when ridden at the back of the field. Better than a rough hope.
