---|---|---|---|---|
I'm Independent, Lemoni and Literacy will be keen early so the tempo should be genuine. LITERACY (7) two runs back have been solid and looks primed to break her maiden status at start seven. Ran on late when fourth over 900m at this track on April 12. Claim a bonus and should prove too good for these. I'M BRAZILIAN (5) surprised at big odds when resumed for a fighting third over 900m at Newcastle on April 24. Inside gate helps and back in grade after racing at the provincials at her last three outings. I'M INDEPENDENT (2) has disappointed in two runs back and drops in trip today after showing good early speed before wilting to finish seventh over 1100m at Narromine on April 28. Backs-up quickly and is worth another chance. UFANA (12) resumed with an eye-catching fourth over 900m here on April 12. Gets weight relief with the claim and strips fitter now. First starter STRIKE THE HEART (3) is worthy of consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: Literacy to win.
