Verdict

THE BIRTHDAY PARTY (6) was second-up from a spell and fresh from a five-week let-up when an impressive all-the-way winner last start over 6f at Kyneton. Goes from mares' company to all-comers today. Stays on 60.5kgs and with a little further improvement at this early stage of the campaign she can get the job done again. BECAUSEYOU'RE MINE (4) pinged straight to the lead and never looked in danger in a BM56 over 5 ½f at Mortlake eight days ago. Draws out a bit but can push forward and play a big role again. RAMELLE (8) returned from a three-month spell with a comfortable maiden win over 5 ½f at Mortlake recently. Only ran a length slower than the Benchmark race on the same card so that form should stand up. ALL THE WAY BABY (9) showed pace but ran out of puff first-up over this trip at Kyneton. Has been in the money at three of four runs hen second-up so expect her to find a bit more today. Market watch on FRENCH NAVY (5) first-up after a 41-week absence.
