Verdict

AXEL ROSE (5) finished eighth last start over 1 ¹¹/16m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 160 metres, after a good third at Addington the run prior. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. PRINCESS SADIE (14) was in the money at Mt Harding two runs ago before finishing second at her latest appearance over 1 ?m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 8 metres. Draws out a little on the second line and may need luck at some point. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FREYA (8) is next in line and although she has to contend with an awkward gate a win is not out of the question. LUVAVICI (3) finished a game fourth last start when getting checked in the running. Should not have any excuses from the favourable draw.
