Peter Moody is aiming for his third Queensland Derby win and he's in the box-seat to achieve that this year, with Moody & Coleman preparing Autumn Angel (barrier 1), who won the 2024 Australian Oaks.
In was a strong edition of that fillies feature, the Victorian proved too tough for Group 1 winners Zardozi and Orchestral, with that her first attempt at 2400m and Autumn Angel has tuned up for this with a second in the Rough Habit Plate on May 18.
Her only time finishing out of the money was sixth-of-ten when first-up over 1400m at Caulfield in February and there was no intent in that return assignment.
Chris Waller has trained two of the last three Queensand Derby winners and one of his leading contenders in 2024 is Tannhauser (barrier 3), who broke a long winning drought when saluting in the Rough Habit Plate.
While he's been a little disappointing as a three-year-old, the son of Dundeel was building nicely heading into the Frank Packer Plate on April 20 and he failed to handle a Heavy 9 surface as a beaten fav in that Group 3.
Warmonger (barrier 23) arguably should've won the South Australian Derby last start and the Victorian will have no trouble running out a strong 2400m.
Blake Shinn will take over the reins on the son of War Decree for the Queensland Derby.
