Race preview
IN BLOOM (2) turned in a moderate run last time when fifth at The Gardens over 715m behind Without A Trace (42.84) in a NG. Was in the money the start prior. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Can make amends. EMERALD DOWNS (8) had been super consistent recording two placings in a row before she was rewarded with a win last time, scoring at Sale over 640m (37.12). The form from her last run stacks up well. Form should stack up. ZORRO DEVERE (1) stuck on well last time to finish 1.5 lengths back in second (34.96) at The Meadows in a Grade 5 over 600m. Overdue and gets his chance. OPALITE (5) has not raced over this journey but still warrants respect.
