BOB KEEPING (2) has been competitive in tougher and should not take long to win back in this grade. VAMPIRE WISH (3) finished runner up at his only try in this company and could go one better from the same draw. QUICK FUEL (5) will be strong at the finish with the drop in distance. MISS GOLDEN TRON (1) is usually thereabouts from this draw.

Comment:Can mix her form and while she finds this grade a test with just 2 placings from 11 runs she usually finds a bit from this draw. Place chance.
