Winner AUD $65,200 - 12 runners
5 ½f
Going: Good
Surface: T
TAUNTING (1) showed early speed from an outside draw and held a forward position before fading to finish fourth, beaten 1.4 lengths, when returning after a lay-off last start over 5½f in the LR Christmas Stakes at Caulfield Heath. Expected to be in this for a long way. MRS CHRISSIE (6) continues to race well with a win in a at Ballarat before finishing half a length away in second last time over 5½f in the LR Christmas Stakes at Caulfield Heath. Reunites with Ms Carleen Hefel who has three wins when on board. Fitter and a likely improver. PRAIRIE FLOWER (8) returned to winning ways last time out, running away with an impressive 3 lengths win over 5½f at Murray Bridge. Getting up in the weights now. Kayla Crowther retains the ride and there is no reason she cannot make it back-to-back victories. STAY FOCUSED (12) lines up for the first time since September 27. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 6f at Caulfield. Makes plenty of appeal.
