1. Shoot Out Preview:

Shoot Out was super unlucky first up and that run should have a line ruled through it. He will have to carry a big weight in the race but he is the proven weight for age horse in the race and he will be right in the finish.

3. Veyron Preview:

Veyron was superb on debut but was a little disappointing last start although i thought the ride on him was quite poor. Christian Reith takes to the saddle again and he must be included in your selections and represents great value.

4. Fawkner Preview:

Fawkner hit the line really well in the Tramway Stakes last start when finishing seventh. He steps up in distance here which he has a very good record over and i feel he has a massive chance and is the forgotten runner in the race.

Trainer: Robert Hickmott

Jockey: Nicholas Hall

Breeding: Reset X Dane Belltar

Prize money earned: $718751

Form at 1600m: 6:4,2,0

5. Sacred Falls Preview:

Sacred Falls has been kept safe by all bookmakers and they i feel are on the ball as Sacred Falls is one of the major players in this race and will be right in the finish.

Jockey: Tommy Berry

Breeding:  O’Reilly X Iguazu’s Girl

Prize money earned: $1619687

Form at 1600m: 3:2,0,0

6. Hawkspur Preview:

Hawkspur will start as the favourite in the race and he is the promising stayer on the way up and in recent bets he has taken favouritism for the Caulfield Cup. Im not sure he will be wound up fully for this race although he is the horse to beat on recent form.

Trainer: C J Waller

Jockey: J A Cassidy

Breeding: Purrealist X Mollyhawk

Prize money earned: $766380

Form at 1600m: 3:1,1,0

3.00 2.90 3.10 2.90 3.00 N/A

George Main Stakes barrier: 2

Weight to be carried: 58.5kg

7. Streama Preview:

Streama was massive in the Warwick Stakes were she went head for head with Rain Affair then had the tenacity to almost hold off those finishing from the back. Will go forward and there doesn’t look to be much pressure in the race and she will take a lot of running down.

Trainer: G H Walter

Jockey: B Shinn

Breeding: Stratum X Pensiamo

Prize money earned: $1712750

Form at 1600m: 3:1,0,0

8. Royal Descent Preview:

Royal Descent has struggled a bit in her two starts this preparation and this is a much tougher task, i would have liked to have seen more from those two runs before suggesting she is a winning chance here.

Trainer: C J Waller

Jockey: N Rawiller

Breeding: Redoute’s Choice X Mulan Princess

Prize money earned: $597030

Form at 1600m: 1:0,1,0

George Main Stakes barrier: 3

Weight to be carried: 56.5kg

9. Dissident Preview:

Dissident will go around with absolutely no weight on his back which gives him a major advantage in this race and is likely to go to the front and roll them along and be hard to catch with the weight allowance.

Trainer: :P G Moody

Jockey: Tim Clark

Breeding: Sebring X Diana’s Secret

Prize money earned: $351000

Form at 1600m: Untried at this distance
