Shimshalar and First Line can be prominent. STEAMY MIST (7) could only manage sixth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1000m at Ballarat, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. FIRST LINE (8) faded last time to finish eighth over 1100m at Hobart after showing good early speed. Well placed and will take some running down. TANGOETTE (9) is ready to break through after collecting her 4th minor placing in a row last time over 1000m at Terang. Likely improver with strong prospects. MR MARKLE (4) is going well with two minor placings from three starts this time in work. Continued the trend last start when third over 900m at Mt Gambier. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Steamy Mist to win.
