Expecting Shapin Power to take up the lead at a genuine tempo.
FEMME FATALE (1) resumes here but had been plying her trade in harder Saturday races last preparation and should appreciate the slight drop back in grade here. Has a win and a second from two attempts over this track and trip and revved up for this with a recent trial placing here. Should take some beating while fresh. INDAZA (8) was a touch flat at the latest effort but go on the solid Ipswich victory two back. The Gollan/Williams combination cannot be ignored. DREAM LANTERN (2) returned in fine fashion with a dominant Dalby win and Huxtable stays on board. Can measure up in this company. MORE FOR READY (9) has hit the top-four in seven of her past eight starts and is usually thereabouts. May earn another cheque. The well-related SULTRY SIREN (3) (half to 2xG1 winner Shadow Hero) rounds out the selections in an open affair. SUGGESTED PLAY: Femme Fatale to return a winner.
