Race Analysis
SHOMA (6) is a three-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young stable and gelded since last run. Most recently finished in the placings in the G1 New Zealand 2000 Guineas at Riccarton Park before going for a break. Will strip fitter for a trial win and looks nicely placed. Leading prospect. PERFECT NIGHT (11) has not appeared since she finished fifth over 1m2f in the G2 Wakeful Stakes at Flemington on November 1. Sure to make her presence felt. MELIAN (5) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 6f at Cranbourne in a tougher race. Tricky draw to overcome but another top-three finish is on the cards. SPARKLING LUCK (7) knuckled down strongly to get within 0. 8 lengths of the winner in second last start over 6f at Pakenham when fresh from a lay-off. Worth including.
