OBLATE is a habitual slow starter who will surely touch more rewarding odds in-running (than her SP). However, with Robyn Brisland's horses steadily returning to peak form and based upon the assumption that she doesn't completely blow the start, she ought to be able to follow up her New Year's Day C&D win. She had the measure of the consistent Break The Silence (won over 7f here on January 3rd) on that occasion, and can make light of a 6lb weights rise. A potential danger is the lightly raced (so far disappointing)
Fox Shinji who may prove slightly more effective over this extra yardage (dam was a 1m-1m1f winner).
