SO\u00a0STAR (5)<\/strong>\u00a0resumes for\u00a0Patrick Payne and rates as one of the hardest to beat based on recent jump outs and trials.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The son to Zoustar ran some nice races without winning during his three-start\u00a0maiden prep, debuting for third over\u00a01300m\u00a0at Seymour late last year.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He could be wanting longer, but this\u00a0look\u00a0a nice leadoff point with Billy Egan riding in good form of late.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No. 11 Assisi\u00a0<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

ASSISI (11)<\/strong> should find this much easier after taking on a Stakes race on debut at Caulfield last\u00a0year.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Shamus Award filly was severely outclassed finishing second-last, before being\u00a0quickly sent\u00a0back to the paddock for a long spell.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She showed some nice late speed in a trial two back and looks well-suited to this short sprint trip.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when ran second last of 13 in the LR Merson Cooper Stakes at Caulfield on November 29 over 1000m, slow going 6 len behind Eternal Warrior carrying 56kg at $41. Returns from a long break but given plenty of time and will find this far easier.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>

No. 12 Habitual\u00a0<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

HABITUAL (12)<\/strong> looks ready to take the next step after storming clear to win his maiden by a whopping five lengths at\u00a0Warracknabeal\u00a0last start.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The son to Foxwedge was all\u00a0class\u00a0in transit, settling in behind the speed before finding clear air and really punching clear with authority.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He still has room for improvement to come third-up\u00a0and all signs point to him relishing another race over the mile.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 7th of 14 in a Mdn-Sw at Seymour on August 7 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Misty Whisper carrying 59.5kg at $21. Last start favourite; won by 5 len in a Mdn-Sw at Warracknabeal on August 29 over 1600m defeating Koyuga Rip carrying 59.5kg at $2.35. Far too good to win maiden latest and is worth following up.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>

MAMUNO (10)<\/strong> was the beaten\u00a0favourite\u00a0fresh at Mornington last time out but is much better suited here over longer.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He had a tough run out wide first-up where he left himself too much ground to make up, but\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0plenty to like about his bounce back chances given he won out past\u00a01400m\u00a0last year.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From a soft draw, he maps to get right back in the run and\u00a0save\u00a0his best for the finish.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Previously second-up 3rd of 11 in a 0-62 at Werribee on May 14 over 1400m, 2 len behind Zamparini Spirit carrying 59.5kg at $16.
