Flemington will host a strong line-up of emerging three-year-old fillies in Saturday’s Listed Cap D’Antibes Stakes.
Run over 1100 metres, the race is a proven stepping stone towards spring features and has again attracted plenty of quality.
My Gladiola resumes for John McArdle with Jamie Mott aboard, while Bellazaine represents the Waterhouse and Bott team with R Bayliss to ride.
Signature Scent lines up for Ciaron Maher, partnered by Mark Zahra, while Scenic Point adds further depth for the Hayes stable.
Other key hopes include Inkaruna for the Freedmans, Eeteedee under star jockey Damian Lane, and the McEvoys’ Steel Trap.
With a host of promising types looking to stamp their mark early in the campaign, the Cap D’Antibes Stakes shapes as one of the highlight fillies’ contests of the weekend.
