Fort J'adore, Dame Mazona and Epic View will be ridden positively out of their low gates so the pace will be genuine. NELLIE MELBA (4) stayed on nicely when finishing fifth of 14 in her last start over 1200m at Scottsville. She will like the rise to 1400m and she jumps from a good draw of four. Rates well as a leading contender. RANI OF JHANSI (6) showed good speed when finishing third of 11 in her last start over 1200m at Scottsville. She tries the polytrack and against similar company, he may be hard to peg back over the final stages. LITTLEBLACKVELVET (5) is a distance specialist who improved sharply on her fourth two starts back at Greyville All Weather to score a victory over 1400m at Greyville All Weather last start when sent out at long odds. She jumps from a handy draw and has solid each-way claims. GLOBAL SECRET (7) in what was her second run this prep finished fourth of seven last start over 1400m at Greyville All Weather as the favourite. Has recorded a win and two placings from five starts at this track and distance. Racing in a fitter state should be returning to form.
