Genuine pace headed by Steely Girl who should kick up along the paint. STEELY GIRL (3) added her fourth win to the tally last time in impressive fashion when careering away from her rivals after racing on speed. Had a bit up her sleeve and is well placed to keep the ball rolling with Bullock piloting from the inside draw. KID BILLY (4) has also struck winning form and looks the biggest threat after making very light work of his CL1 at Coffs Harbour last start. Has more to offer. SHUTTER (1) was well below her best last time at Dubbo when always well back but her two runs prior impressed. Worth forgiving. DAMASCUS GATE (5) was a tough winner two back at Muswellbrook, then was brave again last start at Scone. Has enough early toe to offset the wide draw and gets and keeps an important claim. Don't dismiss. SUGGESTED PLAY: Steely Girl to win.
