5:50am - MOET & CHANDON SPRING CHAMPION STAKES | 2000m | Group 1 | i

The spring feature for staying 3YOs in Sydney over 2000m. Waterhouse and Bott's filly NEVER BEEN KISSED backs up from her G1 Flight Stakes triumph last week and should be up on-pace with the progressive PROFONDO and unlucky INVERELL capable of pushing up too. The form of NEVER BEEN KISSED, HEAD OF STATE and PROFONDO is hard to go past and rates clearly above most others here. HEAD OF STATE and PROFONDO very hard to beat given they were dominant in the lead-up G2 Gloaming Stakes and profile very well for the step to 2000m. SATIRICAL GLORY was unlucky in the same race and should relish the distance too. ALEGRON, BENAUD, FRENCH EMPEROR (very green) and RAGING BULL all showing some talent as stayers.
