Indebe Mayibuye is the likely leader at a strong tempo. HOERIKWAGGO (3) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in her past five starts. Last time out she finished second over 1400m at this track. Looks very tough to beat again. VIRGIN RIVER (2) is having her first run since December 5. Goes very well when fresh - has not been out of the money in five first-up runs and did win over 1200m at Fairview at the start of last prep. Winning chance while fresh. HOPE CHEST (8) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second at this track two starts back then landed the prize by half a length last time out over 1200m at this track. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ALESIA'S LOVE (6) was below par last time when fifth over 1200m at Fairview but she has a solid record at the third run in. Better placed this time and can feature.
