Tony’s shortlist

Fat Tony’s AI picks

1

5. Luna Capella

Tony’s top pick—drawn sweet, unbeaten at 1200m and loves the Soft; the one to crack.

2

2. Dream Of The Moon

Trial win was sharp as a tack; class mare, but needs a good steer from the wide alley.

3

8. Cashla Bay

Fresh specialist with gate speed and a handy weight—could nick it if she gets an easy lead.

4

3. Champagne Diblu

Three wins from seven says plenty, pal; trialled nicely but barrier nine makes it tougher.

5

6. Miss Ziggy

Light weight after the claim and proper three-year-old form; dangerous if the pace is on.

Race context

Race preview

DREAM OF THE MOON (2) had 5 starts last season, and while not living up to the potential that she showed as a 3YO, she was nonetheless competitive in tougher fields in the North than this. She won a recent trial very easily, and should be hard to beat fresh up. CHAMPAGNE DIBLU (3) was well placed to win 3 of his 5 starts as a 3YO last season, and he will be even stronger now. A recent trial will ensure that he is ready to run a bold race fresh up. Check the markets. LUNA CAPELLA (5) was good enough to be stakes placed as a 3YO earlier in the year when finishing runner-up in the Southland Guineas. She has won her only start here, and is also unbeaten in 2 starts over the trip. A good draw should see her be very competitive. MISS ZIGGY (6) was also a quality 3YO filly last season, and she usually comes to hand quickly. She resumes with a quiet trial under her belt, and cannot be taken lightly. CASHLA BAY (8) won fresh up last prep when leading all the way, and she adds to the puzzle.
