G1 – 1600m – Turf

1

Rising Romance

Slow to begin when 2.4 lengths 4th to Don’t Doubt Mamma in G2 Stocks Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on 30 September. Not won since February 2015 but five times G1 placed in that time.

2

First Seal

Top class mare back to her best at second run this season when short neck winner from Tycoon Tara in G2 Tristarc Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on 15 October. Twice a winner over Winx as a three-year-old and rates highly.

3

Zanbagh

Even effort at second run this season when 4.2 lengths 5th to Dixie Blossoms in G3 Angst Stakes (1600m) at Randwick on 8 October. G2 winner at 1500m earlier in the year. Any give in the ground a plus.

4

Danish Twist

Moderate pace against when 1.9 lengths 5th to First Seal in G2 Tristarc Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on 15 October. Fitter for that run and Joao Moreira takes the ride.

5

Heavens Above

Settled well back and made late ground when 1.7 lengths 7th to Hauraki and Dibayani in G1 Epsom Handicap (1600m) at Randwick on 1 October. Good record at the distance and comes back to race for mares only.

6

French Emotion

Produced big finish to win by long neck from Pure Pride in G2 Blazer Stakes (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October. Again ran on well, with tempo against, when 2 lengths 6th to First Seal in G2 Tristarc Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on 15 October.

7

Don’t Doubt Mamma

Strong winner of past two. Raced handy when nose winner from Thames Court in G2 Let’s Elope Stakes (1400m) at Flemington 10 September. Then made long sweeping run to beat Kaniana by long neck in the G2 Stocks Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on 30 September.

8

Serene Majesty

Sound effort when 2.75 lengths 4th to Euro Angel in G3 Vase (1600m) at Caulfield on 12 October. This is stronger but form has proved good from race she contested at Caulfield.

9

Pearls

Enjoyed the run of the race when 0.7 lengths 3rd to First Seal in G2 Tristarc Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on 15 October. Beaten 0.7 lengths in the G1 Flight Stakes at only previous attempt this distance.

10

Dixie Blossoms

Raced handy when 2 lengths 2nd to Tycoon Tara in G2 Golden Pendant (1400m) at Rosehill on 24 September. Then ridden back and ran on strongly to score 1.25 lengths win from Lady Le Fay in G3 Angst Stakes (1600m) at Randwick on 8 October.

11

Denmagic

Raced handy and had every chance when 1.7 lengths 4th to First Seal in G2 Tristarc Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on 15 October. Racing consistently well and step to 1600m does suit.

12

Euro Angel

Strong finishing and impressive 1.5 lengths winner from Rocket Commander in G3 Vase (1600m) at Caulfield on 12 October. Lightly raced and continuing to improve.

13

Pure Pride

Excellent effort when jumped in class and was arguably unlucky when long neck 2nd to French Emotion in G2 Blazer Stakes (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October.

14

Whispering Brook

Scratched at barriers at Moonee Valley last week. That followed sound 1.2 lengths 3rd to Global Glamour in G1 Thousand Guineas (1600m) at Caulfield on 8 October. Racing well but no 3YO filly has won this race.

15

I Am A Star

Racing well. Followed 1 length 2nd to Global Glamour in the G1 Thousand Guineas (1600m) at Caulfield on 8 October with 0.8 lengths 3rd to Nurse Kitchen in G2 Fillies Classic (1600m) at Moonee Valley last Saturday. Aiming to be first 3YO filly to win this race.
