Freshened-up after a dominant debut victory at Moonee Valley on December 28, the son of Deep Field made it back-to-back triumphs when taking out the Blue Diamond Prelude (C&G) on February 8.

Field Of Play is trained by Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young, who prepared Tagaloa to win the 2020 Blue Diamond Stakes.

My Gladiola ($7) was leading the market for this two-year-old Group 1 prior to her defeat in the Blue Diamond Prelude (F) as an odds-on favourite, where she was beaten by Palm Angel ($8) and the Jason Warren-trained juvenile turned around a big margin from their Sandown clash.

Ciaron Maher is still searching for his first Blue Diamond victory and the leading trainer has aimed Cherish Me ($8) at this Group 1 off an impressive breakthrough debut win at Geelong.

The daughter of Brazen Beau has won a February 10 trial at Cranbourne ahead of this feature assignment.

Godolphin have won the Blue Diamond Stakes three times with Earthquake (2014), Lyre (2019) and Daumier (2022), while Sepoy saluted in Sheikh Mohammed's colours back in 2011.

Tempted ($8.50) is their top seed for the 2025 Blue Diamond Stakes and the half-sister to Kallos (four-time stakes winner) was a debut winner in December before returning with a second-place finish in the Group 3 Widden Stakes.
