There should be a bit of pressure with Duke Of Bantry and Highland Kitty pressing forward in advance of Miss Chamonix and Imagina. HIGHLAND KITTY (4) peaks and has been racing well in stronger Maidens. Didn't finish it off as well as expected over the Doomben mile last time on a slow surface. Tackles longer but she will be fitter again and gets in well with the 2kg claim. DUKE OF BANTRY (3) races forward and has been within range at the track his last two. Comes back a touch in trip and we know he will run it right out. IMAGINA (5) comes out of the same races and just missed last time. She can make the finish again. O'EXPLOSIVE (1) was never in the hunt in that contest but went well enough over this distance prior to get some of the money. MELANCOLIE (6) may be the best of the remainder, but needs to lift. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Highland Kitty.
