ORIGIN OF LOVE (1) is a very progressive filly who is bred to stay through her dam side of her breeding. She fought on gamely after leading up the Sir Patrick Hogan Stakes at G2 level a month ago at Ellerslie. She has had a quiet trial since then and will be hard to beat in this. CRIMSON SKY (2) is still a maiden but caught the eye with a big late finish for third in the Desert Gold Stakes here 2 weeks ago over a mile. She is perfectly drawn, and the extra 500m makes her a real winning chance here. ARIADNE (3) came with a well-judged run when winning her maiden over a mile at Pukekohe, and then needed her last run at Ellerslie over a mile. She is bred to relish the step up to 2100m, and she can take this out. ULTIMATE HABIT (10) stuck to her task gamely here in the Desert Gold Stakes a fortnight ago, and she is another who has been crying out for more ground. Stick with her for all top 4 combos. ROCCADONNA (11) may lack the experience of her rivals, but staying is her forte. Include.
