A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. EXALTED KATE (6) lifted strongly to score last time with a bit in hand over 1400m at Murray Bridge, making it two on the bounce. Drops back in trip off 25 days and gets her chance to add to the picket fence. EL PASO CITIE (2) is ticking along nicely and turned in another solid effort here last start when chasing gamely into the placings. Boasts a strong record over this trip and draws well again. Only needs to hold her form to be right there in the finish. EMERALD REWARD (1) did his best work late and got up for second over this track and trip last start. Has a decent record at this venue and is one of the contenders. SALSBURY HILL (3) lost her rider last time but was a determined winner two back. That form stacks up well and she's drawn to get all the favours. Drops back off 35 days and is among the chances. MISS KERMIE (5) is mixing her form but boasts peaks that measure up. Don't dismiss. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exalted Kate to win.
