Esha $5.50
Esha looks the real deal.
Both career performances have broken on-course clocks, and I suspect she has a fruitful and lengthy career in front of her.
She gains a gurnsey off the bench after key scratchings, and if she can reproduce her effortless and arrogant victory in her last start, she can taste Group 1 glory at her third career start.
Her recent barrier trial at Mornington was too quick to record, and most onlookers lost their wigs and monocles.
Acid test!
Baraqiel returned to racing in fine style with a gutsy victory at the track and distance.
The form out of the race has been franked already, and I suspect he will improve second-up after a long lay-off.
The Snitzel gelding possesses a significant turn of foot, and if he has been well supported in most all-in markets after his first-up heroics.
The awkward barrier draw is his biggest obstacle.

Princess Que $9.00/$3.00
Princess Que is winning for fun at present.
The Toronado mare has been ultra-impressive in both campaign victories, and I suspect the camp has some lofty spring goals.
On paper, she looks the likely leader with a clean break from the barriers, and she is a six-furlong specialist.
The big girl looks over the odds, and I expect her to give a good sight as the field motors past the school.
Taking on the more experienced and more credentialed gallopers is the primary concern.
QUADDIE

We have gone extremely wide in a very competitive edition of the Atlantic Jewel Stakes.
Nothing would surprise here, and there is plenty of value on offer if you can find the winner.
Desert Lightning is the one to beat in the So You Think Stakes, while Attrition, Moira, Anisette, and Zardozi, all gain a gurnsey for quaddie insurance purposes.
A handful of selections may determine our fate in a cracking edition of the Group 1 Moir Stakes, while La Fracas, King Zephyr, and Princess Que, fly the flag in the lucky last.
