Two stakes-winners engaged here in Zulfiqar and Maharba, who is not entered for the Golden Slipper and had his form franked on Thursday when the filly he defeated Hell Queen bolted in at Bendigo, read about her here.

Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott have Trapeze Artist colt Introducing looking to up the ante after an impressive midweek debut win, while unraced million dollar colts Idhana (I Am Invincible) and Limburg (Justify (USA) add interest.

Madeira Sunrise the only stakes-winner engaged in the fillies division, although Blanc de Blanc and Fire Lane have been very honest in stakes races, but it does open the door for an up and comer and the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott trained Pierro filly Tu Qui Santuzza might be ready to take the quantum leap.

Unraced I Am Invincible filly Tiz Invincible has shown promise at the trials and is from a half-sister to Anamoe.
