Wootton Lass and Military Tycoon possess good early speed. TEMPTED (2) tough filly who was desperately unlucky not to win the G1 Golden Slipper when getting out late to finish third over 1200m at Rosehill. Won over this track and trip two back and reunited with J Mac. Expected to go close in this easier contest. INKARUNA (5) fresh filly on the scene after attacking the line late when third to Tempted over 1200m in the G2 Reisling Stakes at this track. Kept up to the mark with a trial win at Randwick. Can race closer from the draw and prove hard to stop. MEMO (3) bypassed the Golden Slipper to be saved for this. Powered late to get off the mark when a deserved winner of the G3 Magic Night Stakes at Rosehill over 1200m. Fitted with a recent 900m trial placing and the tongue-tie goes on. Respect. DREAM SIDE (8) well-bred filly who ran second to Marhoona on debut, before finishing a close second to Memo over 1200m in the G3 Magic Night Stakes at Rosehill. Look for her late from the gate. WITHIN THE LAW (1) can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tempted to win.
