• To Win: #8 Phenom ($12 at time of publish) – BET NOW

For value for one of the country’s best stables is Phenom for Waterhouse & Bott who is drawn wider-out but at a lovely price. She gets the distance to overcome the draw with this nicely bred daughter of Zoustar proven in this grade. Last time out she was third to Cilacap at The Valley in the Group 3 Alexandra Stakes over a mile with 56kg when on speed and sticking with the task well. Think she’ll run out the 1800m and drops a kilo to 55kg. Won her start prior to that at Sandown with 60kg on her back. Up to this class, is fit and showing lovely progression. Likely to go forward early from the barriers and will take some beating.
