Verdict

The feature of the day now and RUSSIAN TO THE BAR (4) can turn the tables this time around. He closed off strongly from a long way back last start when only 0.8L off the winner and he meets them better at the weights this time out. Parnham sticks and he can return to winning ways in this suitable race. BONJOY (3) beat a lot of these home last start on Australia Day when closing over the top to score. She keeps raising the bar and she's won 3/4 over the Ascot mile previously. Hard to knock on form and she can win again. ANTIQUE MISS (7) won the La Trice over 1800m two back before dropping in trip last start and being caught wide and without cover most recently. She drops in weight today though and the slight rise in trip should help. Maps for a better run this time and can improve. SENSESSIONAL (6) was a strong winner last start and he continues to work through the grades. Drawn well and can go close. OWN THE QUEEN (9) won't be far away from a favourable alley.

Chasing a hat-trick. Most recently favourite; won by 0.8 len at this track Aus Day January 18 over 1500m defeating Russian To The Bar with 58kg at $3.20. The race before that favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at this track LR Starstruck December 14 over 1600m defeating Own The Queen carrying 55kg at $2.10. Too good as favourite last start and shapes as a key player once again.

Good win off a slow speed last start and he can go on with the job.
