Verdict

PINK VIXEN (4) scored at Toowoomba two back then finished third, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 6 ¾f at Doomben in stronger than this. Maps well and is well-placed to bounce back. Always had talent for better races than this and she has taken her chances in easier - as the win two back shows. She can take another nice chance here and make it pay. AVE CANTARE (11) wound up strongly at the end of 5 ½f at Doomben, beaten by half a length in a 68. She maps for a soft run and is busting to win. Shapes as the biggest danger ahead of RITUALIZE (3) who has been finding it hard to win but is going well and will be around the mark with the weight relief.
