LAGANORE ran a fine race at Gowran Park on reappearance recently considering there's every possibility the ground was too soft for her. She beat a few of these rivals nonetheless and can confirm the form on a sounder surface en route to pocketing this Group 3 prize. Beautiful Morning may have got closer with better luck in running that day and is a worthy adversary while Turret Rocks is expected to leave that form behind now meeting better ground and Creggs Pipes is also respected. Flying Fairies, now racing amongst fillies' again, is also marked present on the shortlist.
