Solid tempo anticipated with Purple Rose taking charge. WOOTTEN IT BE NICE (4) well-bred mare who hasn't lived up to expectations this time in. Stalked the speed third-up but failed to let down with a poor last over 1500m at Kembla Grange. Comes back in trip and expect to see the blinkers and tongue-tie do the trick. Go close. PURPLE ROSE (2) had genuine excuses from the outside barrier with a tiring eighth after showing good early speed over 1350m at Wyong. Can take control from the inside gate and prove hard to catch. LIKA REMI (7) scored two on the bounce, before jumping in trip and class with a fading seventh over 1280m here in BM58 class. Fitter now and place preferred. TULIPWOOD (3) handy mare who can go on with it this campaign. Maps to get the right run and fitted with the two trials. Each way player. SUNDAY PUNCH (8) resumes and assess on the good win at Newcastle last March. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wootten It Be Nice can stamp her authority.
