Genuine tempo with She's A Dame leading the way. ALABAMA CHARM (8) comes out of a high rating contest second-up after running on late to finish sixth to Journeyman over 1200m at Warwick Farm in a Super Maiden. Maps well and gives the impression that this trip will suit. NEFERUSOBEK (7) returned a good set of figures at her second career start with an eye-catching fourth over 1300m at this track. Finds a nice race and can play a leading role on the home track. EL QASABI (2) is going better than his form suggests and is capable of taking this out over the 1500m. Surged late from back in the field with a respectable fifth over 1300m at this track. THE IRON STAR (4) made an even return off the one trial when he chipped away late to secure fourth over 1300m at Newcastle. Placed at this trip last campaign and stays in the calculations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Alabama Charm can get off the mark.
