Verdict

STAR ANISE (10) is smart and the clear benchmark in ratings. Promising filly having first try this longer journey but has won 2/2 this level already and has a big finish. Too good for many of these fresh and looks the one to beat again. LAUGHTERLINES (18) is a promising type unbeaten here in two runs. Too strong fresh over 1 ¼m and looks like she will relish the extra ground. Definite danger with Lane sticking. JURYOKU PIERROT (16) will find this much tougher but far too good over 1 ¼m fresh winning in Listed grade. Has a big finish and plenty of upside. Can measure up again. DREAM CORE (12) is a talented filly who missed the frame for the first time fresh in the Oka Sho behind Star Anise. Went back from a wide gate there and made good ground but gave too big a start over the mile. Looks suited by the extra journey and can bounce back. ENNE (13) was too good on debut then straight into the Grade 2 Flora Stakes and was runner-up. Has good upside and looks a big chance again.
