4:50am - HEINEKEN 3 SURROUND STAKES | 1400m | Group 1 | i

Some of the better fillies in the land come together again over 1400m at G1 level. Early speed from KIAMICHI with XILONG, HEART OF THE OAK and ASPECT RATIO not too far away (tempo: FAIR). One of the big questions is where FUNSTAR will settle from the wide barrier, she's capable of going forward or back from that position. One thing we know is that FLIT has come back in flying form, running a high rating over 1200m first-up with some improvement to come. PROBABEEL going well in NZ too (form ratings slightly lower) and they'll both give FUNSTAR a run for her money if she's not at her best. LYRE around the mark and XILONG is an interesting filly resuming off the back of two nice trials. MISSILE MANTRA a watch in the yard to see if she is fitter this time. [updated 8:51am]
