COSMIC CRUSADER (1) finished second over 7f in the G3 Gold Rush at Ascot at his last run on December 13. Filled a placing in a recent Caulfield trial. Goes very well when fresh with three wins from five starts and proved too good when resuming last prep, is a top chance here. ZOU SENSATION (3) could only manage tenth last time over 6f in the G2 Moreton Cup at Eagle Farm prior to a short break. Kept ticking over with a subsequent trial win at Werribee. Rates highly and sure to be competitive. MIRAVAL ROSE (8) was beaten for early speed but wound up nicely to finish fourth when resuming last start over 5½f in the G3 Sir John Monash Stakes at this track. Among the winning hopes. WINNASEDGE (7) scored last start in the G3 Sir John Monash Stakes at this track to make it two wins from four starts this campaign. Should park just off the speed. Deserves respect on best figures.
