Smart Pirka is the likely leader at a slick tempo. CHICA POCO (8) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths as public elect over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. SMART PIRKA (3) is a consistent performer with 10 minor placings from 13 starts this campaign. Turned in another good effort last time out when third over 1300m at this track after she was prominent throughout. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. CERULEAN ROCKET (10) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 15 lengths away in tenth over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out. MAY BLOSSOM (6) was beaten 6 lengths into seventh in a 1400m contest at this track last time out. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
