Expecting Princess Dane to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. A lot has been asked of ARTANEOUS (9) in his three runs to date and stakes company has proved to be beyond him. Worked to share the lead then dropped right out last start in the Group 3 Kindergarten over this trip at Randwick. Can turn things around in this vastly easier assignment. LIBERTY CALLS (7) started at $3.40 but failed to run out a strong 1250m at Taree last time. Ran a decent race on debut over this distance at Hawkesbury so on that basis she deserves another chance. PRINCESS DANE (6) crossed to settle second but couldn't finish the race off on debut at Wyong recently. Should benefit from that run and might offer a bit more resistance this time. Stablemate DIAMOND DICE (11) turned in a similar performance when lining up for the first time, tiring late over today's journey at Hawkesbury. Can improve sharply without surprising. STELLAA LASS (8) closed well at the end of 1000m on debut at Wyong so this looks a suitable race. SUGGESTED PLAY: Artaneous to win.
