Verdict

ESTA MIRANDO (2) finished strongly to win first-up before tackling the Raconteur last start where she was just outclassed. Pike hops back aboard now third-up and coming back to this level is a good move. She's a third-up winner in the past under similar circumstances and she can bounce back in a big way. ENCHANTED HOUR (9) was superb on debut when flying from the second half of the field to score. CJP rides now and she can sit a little closer from the better draw. Looks an exciting filly on the rise and she can remain unbeaten. SASSY SNIPPET (10) missed by 1.6L at this track and trip when jumping as a $1.20 favourite. She did it easily last start and turned in a figure strong enough to feature in a race like this. Can continue to build through the grades. MR KARADEC (5) finished off strongly last start and can go one better third-up. PUBLICISE (8) is better than she showed last time out and can be in the finish.
