Strong tempo assured with Doubtland Diva, Frostnip and Odessa rolling to the front. SHINJINA (5) presents third up and ready to win. The fresh run at Pakenham was very good, seemingly struggling to see out 1200m last time at Caulfield Heath. That was a stronger race, however, and the market support into $1.80 was strong. Back to 1000m, expect she's flying at them late. ODESSA (1) resumes. She's a good filly who was running well in some handy races last time in, often sent out at very short odds. She's won a trial leading in and can deliver on that promise here. HEADBANGER (3) tackled a strong race at Flemington last time off a dominant win here prior. This suits much better. DOUBTLAND DIVA (4) resumes having won well on debut at Mornington, showing speed and coming away to win by 1.5 lengths. She can measure up. FROSTNIP (2) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Shinjina.
