7Olympiad
Olympiad represents the main danger with John Allen's booking and first-time tongue tie indicating stable confidence. His recent third at Werribee showed improvement, and the inside barrier allows Allen to position him perfectly.
3rd pick6th
3So Vogue
So Vogue brings the most consistent form with three placings from eight starts. His recent second at Wangaratta was solid, and the good barrier draw allows him to settle handy. While winless, he's been competitive at this level and represents each-way value in an open maiden staying contest.
Value pick4th
14Woollen
Woollen represents the classic maiden value play as a lightly-raced runner with stable confidence evident in the Stockdale booking. While her debut sixth was modest, the Hunter stable can improve horses second-up and the Savabeel breeding suits the distance.

Written Tycoon filly shows consistent improvement with a 6-5-4 finishing pattern across three starts. Declan Bates is in outstanding form (25% recent strike rate) and the inside barrier suits Kyneton's pace bias perfectly.
