We have She’s an Artist a chance last start and she didn’t enjoy the pressure of leading down the Flemington straight. However, drawing wide could help her.
The four-year-old burst onto the scene with back-to-back wins, and they were mightily impressive. Something close to that run will be good enough.
We expect strong betting moves to come for her.

Looking to score a good debut win is Knightsbridge, who comes from the powerful Waterhouse/Bott stable, which is good at getting debutants to win.
The son of Farnan comes off a trial win at Randwick, and although he only narrowly won, he wasn’t asked for much.
Barrier two could be sticky, but it depends on how the track is playing.

Options looked good when winning on debut at Echuca before winning again at Bendigo two back.
The three-year-old colt by Impending then ran third behind two VRC Derby contenders at Flemington, and he went down fighting.
