    Race Analysis

    MISS ARIA (4) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 3 lengths away in sixth last time out over 7f at Caulfield two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. The testing material. AIR ASSAULT (1) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when sixth, beaten 3. 5 lengths, over 1m in the G2 Blamey Stakes at Flemington after he was in contention on the corner. Has a strong record at the third run in and is capable of sharp improvement. A SAMURAI MIND (9) resumed over 6f in the LR City of Marion Stakes at this track last start and could only manage fourth, beaten 1. 75 lengths. Among the winning hopes. BAMYAN BUDDHA (3) raced on the pace over 1m at this track last time and went on to win by a neck. Brooke King who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Best figures stack up.
