Good early pressure with Where's My Lunch or Warralea Lass likely to take up the running. SIMPLY THINKIN' (1) is racing well, getting the job done comfortably here last start over 1300m. The wide draw is a niggle, though she did win from well back at Pinjarra two back. ZJP's claim comes in handy and she won't be far away. CRUISE TO VICTORY (5) was only fair at Pinjarra last start and looks well placed up in trip now. Include. PLAYING GAMES (2) has claims after a strong start to her campaign. Fitter and is ready to show what she can do. HEY PINO (11) promising gelding who last start finished half a length away in third over 1200m. In the mix. WARRALEA LASS (7) handy mare fitter for two runs back. Better effort last time out when third over 1300m at this track. Ready to show more. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 1,5,2,11.
