There was plenty to like about the cup-day effort of THE QUEENS GAMBIT (8) when she came from the back row and chased well to place over this distance. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw but she wasn't far off the top filly Cherish Me two back. That looks good form for this. TEE BALL (10) found winning form at the latest appearance, scoring easily at Kaikoura. Switches back to a mobile start but he draws for a nice trail. Could win again if he gets the gaps. FRANCO ANKARA (1) has had some tricky barriers of late but is much better served by the ace today. Owns a decent record at this circuit and distance so could show his best. CHEER THE CAPTAIN (4) draws better than he did on Tuesday and recorded a string of placings prior so is worth another chance. THE COALMAN (6) deserves respect after placing from this barrier on cup day.
