Verdict

WITH YOUR BLESSING (9) nice gelding who returned slick figures when crushing his rivals over this track and trip with the 58kg third-up. Drawn to stalk the good tempo and looks up to this tougher assignment on the limit weight. Each way. IOWNA MERC (3) racing in career best form and almost pinched it when holding on well for a narrow second to Magic Time over 1200m in the G2 Expressway Stakes here. In peak form and sure to be thereabouts again. WILLAIDOW (7) underrated gelding chasing his fourth-straight win. Sat on the good speed first-up and pulled out plenty late when a gritty winner of the G3 Southern Cross Stakes over 1200m at Rosehill. Won't get it as easy here and capable of figuring in the minor money. GIVEMETHEBEATBOYS (5) showed good speed on resumption before fading late to finish sixth over 1200m in the G2 Expressway Stakes. Further improved with the visors coming off and must be kept safe. ENCAP (6) and REDIENER stay in the mix if they overdo it up front.

Second-up. First-up after four months tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at Rosehill G3 Southcross February 1 over 1200m defeating Iowna Merc carrying 54kg at $4.40. Previously second-up won by 1.5 len at this track Cg&E Bm78 August 10 over 1200m on a soft track defeating Cloudland with 59kg at $2.50. More pressure here and this looks much stronger.
