Without much in the way of early speed it might be left to Dita Von to take charge. ANGEL IN THE WIND (1) has been racing in stronger metro and provincial company and was beaten just 1.5L at Rosehill 15 days ago. Is well-placed back home in a 58 and can win for the sharp barn. DITA VON (2) is a danger building on narrow defeats at Corowa and Wagga. Kissick sticks aboard and is flying. STEELY GIRL (3) drifted back second up last start and boxed on well to finish 3L from the winner in stronger at Canberra. Draws out but Mathew Cahill is a key jockey switch and she's proven third up. SPURLINE (5) won a CL1 here two back and then was plainer in stronger at Goulburn. Better suited and should be around the mark. PRETTY EYED (9) was better at Canberra last time but needs to find extra to be winning. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Angel In The Wind.
