Verdict

Toccata Aria, Ember Days, Holly Rose, Jade Star, Jessinca, Sunset Mirage and Littleton Zephir look the principals in a wide open finale and the tentative vote goes to Ember Days. The selection won well last time out when defeating Todlea and despite his penalty he will be hard to beat under conditions that suit. Toccata Aria rates the main danger he won well last time out when defeating Tintawn Gold but he looks to have plenty of weight and for that reason he is opposed. Holly Rose is another that could go well she was a fair fourth behind Our Destiny last time from a bad draw and she has definite place claims. Jade Star was a fair fourth behind the well handicapped Golden Chance last time and is another with placer claims especially as this longer trip will suit. Of the remainder Jessinca and Sunset Mirage are well weighted and are worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Ember Days.
