Strong tempo with Murmullo and Hot Strut leading the way over Affaire Vue. HOT STRUT (3) is flying this campaign and has winning claims again. This is tougher but she can go forward and give them something to catch with the Parks circuit clearly one that plays to her strengths. LISELLE'S LUCK (11) can mix her form but she was a winner two starts back and has top-three claims in this race. She can take the place of main danger ahead of ANGELIC APPEAL (1) who can build on her run last start, which was something closer to her best. BEAUTIFUL JEWEL (2) may take a run but she was good fresh over a bit further last prep and wary of her given that she does have the talent. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Hot Strut to follow up.
