SOHO PLAYGIRL (7) won at Echuca two runs ago before a less impressive effort at her latest appearance over 1670m at Cobram, beaten 30 metres. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends. INSIDER TRADING (10) is looking to improve on his last-start ninth behind Hesitate at Listed level over 2240m at Melton six-and-a-half months ago. Quality performer who is nicely placed to return in style. CLIVES GIRL (5) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when she finished fourth at this track over 1690m. ROYAL CADENCE (6) disappointed last time when seventh over 1690m here. Is better than that and can turn things around.
