Small field but expecting a genuine tempo with plenty of pace engaged. LA VIDA LOCA (1) raced from a handy position over 1600m last time, but found one too good on the day. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. If not in need of her resuming run may find herself in the winner's enclosure. STAR OF ELENA (6) had excuses on debut when finishing fourth of seven over 1000m on the turf. It must be noted that the winner of that run has come out and won again since. She would have gained from the experience and she should make the natural improvement. CLEVER CANDY (4) returns from a spell and is having her first run for Alan Greeff. She has plenty of scope and if suited to the polytrack, she should improve. RUBY CLAIRE (2) stayed on well when second over 1200m on this course last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. Has each-way claims.
