Pace looks to be genuine with Antheia and Gazza's Spirit matching motors in advance of Fluffy's Girl and Wild Nights. ANTHEIA (1) was backed off the mao winning a Maiden here comfortably. She races forward and draws low again. She can take the next step, retaining the handy 3kg claim and freshened. FLUFFY'S GIRL (5) is a better hope than her last two starts suggest. The Maiden win three back was indicative of better things to come, and winning hoop Darmanin is reunited, replacing the 3kg apprentice. Keep onside. PEAK A BOOM (4) has the rail and is racing well. Comes back a level and is on a 7-day return. BOUNTY BAY (7) maps well and is proven second-up. Sits low in the weights and also deserves consideration. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Antheia.
