SHINOVAR (3) was well in commission last start over 1006m at this track (Dirt) when fourth, beaten 2.5 lengths. Extra trip a plus so worth another chance. LOOK AT ME NAH (6) resumes from a 11 weeks spell and looked close to a win before the break, starting favourite and finishing second at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Expect she has come on over the break. Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. TASTE OF FREEDOM (1) is back after a break of 11 weeks. At the last run before the layoff she finished fifth over 1408m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Rates highly on best figures and should be right in this. FLIRTI BIRDI (2) is a nicely bred three-year-old filly making her first appearance at the races. By Silver State from Theyplayingoursong who has produced her share of winners. Promising type who can make a positive start to her career.

On debut third of 8 at Evangeline Downs Turf June 11 over 1609m, 3 len behind Proton Kitty carrying 55kg at $22.10. Has plenty of scope for improvement this time in work.
