Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Stiktodascrypt. SPANISH TREASURE (4) has been knocking on the door of a maiden victory with consecutive runner-up finishes to start the career and strikes a winnable contest here. Can go one better against this lot. VIVIKA (9) is a last-start winner who gets 3kg weight relief and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Ticks plenty of boxes for a race like this. ALPHA SOFIE (5) stormed home to score in good fashion at this track and trip last start to shed the maiden tag. The wide draw will see her a long way back in the run, but it's hard to ignore what she did last start and she has to be included. SPECIAL ARTIST (2) finished behind Alpha Sofie when caught wide last start after a good win two back. Expecting an improved run. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Spanish Treasure.
