---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace to be established by The Sting, Spiritual Gal and Truly Elsa, with In Love close at hand. TRULY ELSA (6) followed up her dominant maiden win here two back with another bold front running effort in town at the latest. Drop back to a winning trip and tackles an easier grade. Well-placed to make a return to the winner's circle. MINTULEE (1) is yet to strike through this campaign but has been thereabouts. Failed to live up to market expectation in town at the latest but now strikes a more suitable assignment. Main danger. BEAUTY BOUND (4) returns and makes her stable debut for Phillip Stokes. Was a handy enough in NSW, will be interesting to see how she stacks up. THE PLASTICS (5) dug deep to shed her maiden tag last start. Further improvement is anticipated. IN LOVE (7) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Truly Elsa to win.
