Provocative
Grant Peters
Queensland Oaks winner Provocative is likely to resume over a mile at Moonee Valley toward the end of next month.
Cambridge trainer Tony Pike may then aim the daughter of Zabeel toward the Gr.3 The Bart Cummings at Flemington on October 2 as the winner of the 2500 metre handicap is exempt from the ballot for the Gr.1 Melbourne Cup.
Provocative spelled in Brisbane with stablemates Sacred Elixir, the Gr.1 J. J. Atkins winner, and the Gr.1 New Zealand Derby winner Rangipo, following her Group One success with the trio to fly to Melbourne on August 11.
