Fast pace assured with Pink Diamond, Purple Flower and Sky Velocity leading the charge. DRIVE BY (5) is better than her last three starts would suggest. She has won twice, finished second once and third once from ten starts over this course and distance. Apprentice Jacey Botes takes the 4kgs off her back which will assist her cause. If not too far out of her ground turning for home, she may find herself in the winner's enclosure. QUENTASIA (2) is better than her last start run over this course and distance looks on paper. If finding the form of her penultimate outing when scoring at this track should be figuring in the finish. PURPLE FLOWER (8) last appeared when she finished last of seven over 1400m at this track. Having her first run from a new stable and looks a strong top-three prospect. PINK DIAMOND (6) was never really a threat when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, finishing 8 lengths from the winner in 11th. Has good early speed and having won second-up previously is well worth considering.
