A small field that lacks a pacemaker. ALTIORA (2) ran a better race and finished fourth last time out over 1500m at this track. Has her share of ability and with a little improvement can take this out. FINE BLUE (5) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when seventh over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. LEI MOANA (6) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth over 1400m at this track after she got a long way back. Cherry-ripe now and can turn things around. SMILE HOP (1) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing seventh. Fitter and can give this a shake.
