Without a recognised leader, Jimmy Angel and Effortlessly will likely set the pace. EFFORTLESSLY (7) finished off from a long way back to be 1.3L off the winner first-up from a break. She'll be fitter for that run and she picked up close to her best. Remaining at 1200m is a little query, but she looks a nice filly on the way up and with improvement likely, she makes plenty of appeal. PLAYA DEL SOL (6) sat handy and couldn't fend off the winner in stronger company last time out on the Scarpside and Pinjarra, beaten 0.6L. Fiore remains in the saddle and she has enough early speed to offset the tricky draw. Can get across and will take catching once again. LE FEM LE CHOIX (9) was sound on debut at Northam before going for a break. Her latest trial coming into this was very impressive and Steve Parnham hops on board for her return. Should get every chance and can put her best foot forward. BONDITRAM (2) gets Chris Parnham today replacing the apprentice hoop and will go close. JIMMY ANGEL (1) can be in the finish on resumption. SUGGESTED PLAY: Effortlessly can get the job done this time.
