Interesting little race to kick off Makybe Diva Stakes Day. RUSKA ROMA (7) resumes having last been seen winning the Listed Twilight Glow Stakes. Fairly long spell here and 1200m will be on the sharp side but she gets in light and looks a strong chance. JETT SMASH (6) resumes. He won three in a row to start last campaign before getting over a mile. Has plenty of ability and D Lane on from a low draw helps. MARKDEL (3) has been racing very well in similar races. The bar goes up now but he'll be hard to beat again. SPACE RIDER (1) seems to go best fresh before dropping off. He's good enough to win.
Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation second last of 15 at Morphettville in the G2 Tobin April 25 over 1200m, 7 len behind Tycoon Star with 57.5kg at $81. Previous preparation first-up won by 0.5 len Caulfield G3 Manfred January 24 over 1200m defeating Job Done carrying 57kg at $15. Seems to go best fresh, good enough to figure.
Dual acceptor. Second-up. First-up after four months tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a neck in a Bm94 at Rosehill on August 15 over 1200m in soft going defeating Grand Impact with 52kg at $4. Previously second-up 6th of 9 in a 3&4yo Bm78 at Rosehill on February 21 over 1100m, 1.75 len behind Signor Tortoni with 58kg at $5. Beat a good field fresh and looks well placed despite the big weight jump.
At the latest run 6th of 12 in a Bm74 at Caulfield on August 15 over 1100m, on a slow track; 1.4 len behind Fundamental Nature with 60.5kg at $9.50. Before that ran on from midfield and won by a head in a Bm78 at Caulfield on July 11 over 1100m on a soft track defeating Luna Cat with 59kg at $5.50. Keeps racing well and that form should hold up.
Last start 3rd of 7 in a Bm88 at Sandown-Hillside on August 22 over 1300m, on heavy track; 2.5 len behind Gold Coast Belle carrying 56kg at $13. The start before that 4th of 11 in a Bm78 at this track on August 1 over 1100m, 1.5 len behind Just Like Gaby carrying 59.5kg at $10. Going well but just prefer on wet ground.
At the latest run raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 12 in a Bm74 at Caulfield on August 15 over 1100m, on a slow track; 1.4 len behind Fundamental Nature with 60.5kg at $8. The run before that held ground to the line 2nd of 11 in a Bm78 at this track on August 1 over 1100m, long-neck behind Just Like Gaby with 59.5kg at $5.50. Going okay but have a few ahead.

Previous preparation first-up favourite; won by 0.5 len Sale 0 - 62 March 1 over 1212m slow track defeating Small Town Hero carrying 60kg at $3.50. Nice type who should run well fresh.
