The inside grass was open to horses nominated for Moonee Valley on Friday night and Pennington, a new addition to the Russell and Scott Cameron stable, looked sharp stretching her legs ahead of resuming.

Vengeur Masque is an intended runner in The Bart Cummings at Flemington on Saturday and was strong late in his gallop on the steeple grass.

Markers on the steeple grass were out three metres, riders reporting the ground riding in the good(4) range, the inside grass was out six metres.

Racenet has compiled a list of times below with an analysis of the work to assist punters.
