Verdict

CAMPIONE D'ITALIA (4) fourth-up for this and his racing style suggests he's looking for this trip and further. Slashing run in the G1 Golden Slipper when he powered late from near last on the turn with a tough fourth over 6f at Rosehill. Proven at Randwick and gets a better set-up for this. Hard to hold out. ZAMBALES (6) shuffled back early and struck plenty of trouble in the straight with a respectable ninth in the Golden Slipper. Assess on his narrow second in the VRC Sires' over this trip. Leading player. STREISAND (12) tough filly who goes to a different pain barrier now out to the 7f. Never surrendered with a tough on-pace second in the Golden Slipper. Stalks the speed from the better draw and not without top-four claims. PARADOXIUM (5) poorly drawn again after working hard early with a fading eleventh in the Golden Slipper. Stays in the mix if he can cross comfortably. MISS CHANEL (13) value contender who never got on the track at Caulfield. Respect.
