In the small field Gentle Steel and Oh Too Good are expected to take up the running. Interesting little race because a few are much better suited over further. AMEENA (3) is one of the true sprinters in the field who resumes. She didn't quite fire last time in but fifth in a G1 Manikato reads well, and the preparation before that she just missed in a G1 Sangster in Adelaide. She's well in with 55kg and might just be too sharp. PHOTOGRAPH (7) resumes. Her form was a bit better than it looked last time in, she just needs things to go her way given her racing pattern, but she's got the turn of foot to win. OH TOO GOOD (1) is the class of the field first up, but she's never raced below 1200m and is best at 1400-1600m. She can win on ability. SHE'S GOT PIZZAZZ (2) is another preferred over a bit further but she can figure. SOFT LOVE (5) was poor in a strange race fresh, look for improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ameena to win.
