FORM FACTS
Successful with Riverina Charm in this race in 1988, Brian Mayfield-Smith saddles up Innovation Girl, the filly suffering her first defeat this campaign In the Jumeirah Stakes (formerly the Tranquil Star Stks) when trapped wide throughout. Like So Gorgeous two years ago, Innovation Girl won the Ascot Vale Stakes after also winning the Quezette Stks. La Bella Dame was ridden to perfection to take the Jumeirah (Tranquil Star), that race providing 8 of the past 10 Manifold winners with Azzurro, Brompton Cross, Rubidium & So Gorgeous completing the double. Lashed (3rd in the Jumeirah) will enjoy the 1600m, while Milanova (4th to Lashed in the G3 SA Sires) seeks to bring the Manifold to Lindsay Park for the first time since Midnight Fever in 1987.
