MAFIA MISS (Grahame Begg) - Hard to miss her eye catching first up performance at Randwick last Saturday when ridden with some poor judgement at the vital stage. Talented filly looks to have come back in the right form to make further progress through this preparation.
Jason Hickson
MR MAKE BELIEVE (Peter Moody) - Has done the right thing by us so far this campaign and liked the way he was made favourite for the Winter Championship indicating he was considered a great chance. He didn't get a run in that race and given another week, it should ensure he's right. While he might win again this time, no reason he can't continue to be followed in a stable on absolute fire.
'Aspro'
FOXWEDGE (John O'Shea) - Set to kick off a Golden Rose campaign in the weeks ahead. Will be a very interesting runner through the spring as his juvenile form reads extremely well and he looked the type to train right on as a three year old. The Todman Stks form was very strong for that age bracket.

LEVIOSA (Jenny Graham) - A Magic Albert filly who is undefeated and tries so hard in her races. She certainly was much more than just a short courser as she was strong on the line in the Grafton Inglis Bonus Plate and could easily go onto other bonus races into her 3yo season. She has rated better and better and seems certain to be able to win races in town in the future.

BOLISIMO MISS (Ellerton/Zahra) - She has rated better and better this prep and was out of her comfort zone when racing on pace on Saturday. She fought on so well there, substantiating her market support. With a good break, the Bel Esprit filly might come back in the Spring and challenge for a top 3yo sprint. A race like the Coolmore Stud Stks is not out of the question given her straight track credentials.
