STEFI MAGNETICA (15) impressed when resuming then took on a much better race last time when ninth over 6f in the G1 The Everest at Randwick. Capable of a return to form. JOLIESTAR (16) is back in grade. After a fast finishing seventh in stakes class in the g1 the everest at randwick. Expected to measure up over this journey and should be doing best work late again. SOUTHPORT TYCOON (1) was a narrow winner in a in the G1 Manikato Stakes at Moonee Valley then in the placings last time in the G3 Sydney Stakes at Randwick. Gets a little weight relief. Blinkers are removed. Among the leading chances. ASCOLI PICENO (19) saluted at the first run back from a lay-off last start over 1m in the G3 Keisei Hai Autumn Handicap at Nakayama, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Has been given a let-up of eight weeks since that outing. Open to plenty of improvement and appeals as a solid top-three hope.
