Cohesive looks like a strong contender for Edward Cummings. The lightly-raced mare has faced some tough wide draws this prep, but showed real improvement in her last start at Canterbury, finishing third after a strong chase over a slightly shorter distance. Now in her fifth run back from a spell, the 1200m distance should suit her better, and a favorable gate should allow her to settle nicely and come off the speed.
Killer Kerr seems like she may benefit from a longer distance. The mare by Shooting To Win finished a strong second over 1350m a couple of weeks ago, a solid effort given she had a wide run throughout. She’s performed well over a mile before and benefits from a 3kg claim. With a soft draw, she should settle just off the pace and have every chance to perform well.
