The well-fancied Oriental Girl is likely to take up the running.
ORIENTAL GIRL (3) brings outstanding form from the last campaign and has won 3/5 fresh. Runs along and will be winning if presented on-song. SILENT EXPLORER (2) is first-up off a comfortable CL6 win when he was heavily-bet again. Usually needs a run but draws low and the winkers go on first time. Watch the market closely. HARD YAGA (4) led and impressed winning here first-up by a space. Was plain at Townsville after but is worth another chance. POLAR BLAST (1) is capable and will be ready to go off the 63 day spell. Gets the claim and is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Oriental Girl.
