5Star Of Stirling
Star Of Stirling showed significant improvement in his second start, finishing a close second over today's distance at Seymour in heavy conditions. The step up to 2000m suits and the soft track conditions should be manageable given his heavy track form.

3rd pickWon
7Coastal Whispers
Coastal Whispers comes off an encouraging second at Casterton over today's distance and has shown she can handle the 2000m trip with 0 wins from 1 start but 1 second. The Tom Dabernig stable adds confidence and her soft track form of 0 wins from 2 starts but 1 second is relevant. While winless in six starts, the recent distance form suggests she's capable.
Value pick6th
1Bernie Beel
His recent second at this track and distance is encouraging, and his Warrnambool record of 0 wins from 5 starts but 1 second shows course suitability.
