ACCREDITED (6) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 1. 4 lengths back in fourth over 7½f in the G3 Festival Stakes at Rosehill. Will be on the speed in transit and is expected to take some running down. ROTHFIRE (1) finished 14th last time out over 6½f at Randwick, beaten 11 lengths. Has a solid record here including six wins and four minor placings from 18 outings. Should be in the finish. ROCKRIBBED (2) raced on the speed and kept going to score by a nose last time out over 6¾f in the LR Recognition Stakes at Doomben. Will be handy in transit despite the tricky draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is worth serious consideration. TAVS (4) scored two runs back then was well in commission last time but could only manage to finish seventh over 6f in the G3 George Moore Stakes at Doomben. Likely improver with strong prospects.
