Just a modest pace in store without noted speed runners engaged. What started as a strong maiden decimated by scratchings. PACIFIC GLAMOUR (13) was well fancied on debut in much tougher company at Moonee Valley and not a lot went right. Given another spell and returns unbeaten in two jump-outs. Expecting big improvement this campaign and this looks ideal fresh. WHERE'S MY SOCK (10) stayed in the stalls fresh but ran a much better second last time. Quick back-up and will be on speed and tough to beat again. NIC THE CASH (2) placed two of four starts in first campaign and should be primed to run well fresh here off the back of three jump-outs. Currie has been aboard the last two and retains the mount. Expected to run well. DON'T DOUBT DOTTIE (12) is a first starter who is fitter for two jump-outs and has Allen and the inside. Watch the market closely. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Pacific Glamour.
