Stake: $1,413

BLU BERT (1) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 480m at Monmore in a solid 28.89. Top win latest and looms as the one to beat again. WHISKY ELSA (2) comes here following a placing in fast time (28.88) over 480m at Monmore. Top win latest and can measure up again. UNLOCK QUEEN (6) is a last start placegetter in an A2, jumping from this trap and finishing a one length second over 480m at Monmore. Boasts a strong record off this same box, including five wins and seven placings from 18 starts. Harder here but expected to feature again. SOUTHWOOD FURY (4) collected a minor prize last start after leading - must be considered.

Turned in a much better performance last start when third over 480m at Monmore in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors.

Sound debut over 480m at Shelbourne Park, finishing second (28.77) and beaten 1.5 lengths. Tough assignment and place prospects appear best.

Yet to break through in two runs but has been thereabouts. Jumped well and led latest before fading to third (29.07) at Monmore over 480m. Likely to be much improved on the experience. Tested under these conditions.

Big odds but gave a huge sight after burning early, finishing a 6 length third (29.78) over 500m at Towcester. More than capable and has to be included.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Monmore then finished runner-up at her latest appearance in an A2 at Monmore over 480m (28.97). In solid form and can win without surprising.
