Amelia's Jewel looks to replicate Queen after defeat

Simon Miller kept glamour filly Amelia's Jewel in his box at Ascot. He didn't want to back her up and have four runs in 28 days. Miller and Amelia’s Jewel tasted defeat for the first time in the Listed Burgess Queen (1400m) on Melbourne Cup day. Arcadia Queen went on to be a three-time Group 1 winner with $4m in prizemoney after her odds-on defeat in Burgess.

Amelia's Jewel is a $2.50 favourite to win on Saturday. Simon Miller hopes to replicate Arcadia Queen's success. The horse is also a favourite for the Northerly Stakes over 1800m two weeks later. The winner of the Burgess Queen was Laced Up Heels.
