Another hard race to assess. STARTING POINT has a big weight to carry but she was a close-up 3rd in a stronger course-and-distance race last time so a repeat of that performance off an unchanged mark could suffice. Highly rated 2yo MARSEILLES has feature-race form to his name and should fare better at this level with the benefit of his rider's 1.5kg allowance. MAJOR APOLLO and OCTOBER FEST should acquit themselves competitively dropping into this grade. HERITAGE RIDGE, COUNTRY TIME and LOVE SHACK also have what it takes to get into the picture.
