Noble Ruby to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. NOBLE RUBY (5) has a big fitness edge over these but has yet to be tested on a heavy track. Given every chance in the run when a plugging third over 1000m at Kembla Grange. Sure to be thereabouts. NOW YOU'VE DONE IT (2) handy Zoustar filly who returns from a lengthy break. Had mixed luck in two career runs and looks ready to go after two even trials. Will be in this for a long way with the blinkers and tongue-tie added from the good draw. LOBLOLLY (6) smaller field can see her improve sharply. Failed to finish off at her first run back when ninth over 1000m at Kembla Grange. Claim helps from the low draw. QUEEN OF THORNS (7) hardly set the world alight in three runs and worth another chance today third up. Will go forward from the draw and improvement is anticipated. SUGGESTED PLAY: Noble Ruby to win.
