Race Tip
Group 1 placegetter REO (6) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she settled well back over 7½f at Moonee Valley, beaten 3.5 lengths into tenth. Meeting a deeper field this time but she deserves another chance. Group 3 winner LET'SBEFRANKBABY (1) drifted back then made late ground to finish fourth when when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7½f at Caulfield Heath. Jamie Mott who has three wins when partnering stays on. Among the leading chances. CRIMSON LIGHT (10) worked home well and finished second last time over 1m2 1/4f at Moonee Valley, beaten 1.3 lengths. Must raise the bar but a big run will not surprise. TYCOON BEC (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in third over 1m2f at Wangaratta. This looks a good race for her and she is one of the key runners.
