Verdict

Open race to close out the card. The well-related RUGBY (3) (half to G3 winner and 3xG2 placed Mallory) is one from one over this course and distance and will strip fitter second-up from the break. Respect from the Bruce yard. CASTERLY ROCK (2) has placed four of five over this mile journey and is usually thereabouts. Comes right into calculations as an each way play after a couple of key scratchings. COOL RUNNING (4) has handled the transition out of maiden company well and was only narrowly denied victory at this course and distance last start. Could take holding out. JENNI MOREESE (5) drops back in grade from her first up outing at Doomben. Better suited at this level.
