Track: GOOD      

RYLEE RHAYNE BOW (6) is flying having landed a winning hat trick at this circuit when leading from a similar draw to score last time. Kept fresh since but has built an impressive strike rate at this venue and distance. Hard to stop. CHYNCHILLA (8) was too good when a second-up winner before suffering a surprise defeat as a hot favourite when runner-up last time. Classy when at her best and draws for a trail so could bounce back. THE VICAR OF DIBLEY (2) came from the back row for a resuming win at this venue. Takes on a couple of smart mares but draws to advantage. SOAP OPERA (1) could get into the money from the ace draw.
