METRO BLISS (3) made good progress second up when she led and stuck on well for a 4.2m second at Melton. Can push forward again from this draw and should be fitter again so can go one better. SMASHED IT (10) was well in the market first up but bombed the start. Lightly raced and still learning but looks to have talent. Winning hope if the penny drops. IM THE WILD ONE (6) was midfield last time to follow a string of placings. Finding it hard to win but is honest and has to come into calculations. HEY GIGI (5) hasn't been far from the placings in any of her starts this time in and should be at her peak fourth up.
