This could concern the two recent winners Sister Etienne and Yungaburra and we will side with the latter, Mazin Lady looks the pick of the others. Tom Pitt's charge is steadily improving with racing and hit the winning note last time when beating The Italian Job in good style. There should be plenty more to come and he looks the one top be on. Sister Etienne got the better of the consistent Dotty's Daughter at Beverley last time. She had gone well against much better opposition before that and has to rate a main danger to the selection. Mazin Lady is one that deserves a sucxcess following some very consistent efforts, but once again place money could be the order of the day. Hucking Hope looks the best of the rest, but Yungaburra looks the most progressive and he gets our vote.
