|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate tempo headed by T O Caballe. BIANCA (4) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 4 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. Should go well again. BIRD HAS FLOWN (11) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on May 18 over 1200m when she scored by half a length. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. A SHIN NUCIMASNU (2) improved sharply on her fifth two starts back at this track with a win as public elect over 1200m at this track eight days ago, getting home by 2.5 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LIBERIAN GIRL (9) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has six placings from 10 runs this prep, finishing 0.8 lengths away in second most recently over 1400m at this track. One of the contenders.
