Formscan - MILAJESS arrives here on the back of three consecutive seconds in recent months and Micky Hammond's mare will not find many better opportunities to go one better. The consistent Tara Iti is likely to be in the mix once again as he is clearly on a workable mark. If a wind operation sparks some improvement, Trailblazer is another who could go well.
