Verdict

VIENNA CALLING (10) ended up in the second half of the field on settling down but finished off well to be 1.4L off the winner fresh. The winner there has since run well in Saturday company. The inside draw this time should see her be closer in the run and she ticks plenty of boxes with the fresh run under her belt. CELEBRATORY (3) makes his debut today and has shown plenty at the trials in readiness. He's a brother to G1 winner Celebrity Queen. Pike sticks from the trials and a forward showing is anticipated on debut. OSCARS NO GROUCH (2) disappointed last time after a good start to the campaign, missing by 3L. A wide draw again this time is a query, but his form either side of the break shows he's better than that. Can bounce back to form. ROCKING IN VEGAS (1) gets the blinkers on first time as he comes back in grade and he's not to be discounted. KENTUCKY DRIVE (7) won't be far away.
