Just a moderate tempo without an obvious speed influence. ACACIA'S BLOSSOM (7) is building towards a win with placings at her last two runs, the latest effort a second over 1200m at Greyville All Weather when beaten a nose. This looks a nice assignment. POETIC PRINCESS (1) resumed last time out and finished second over 1200m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Best figures read very well. AMAFORT (8) ran below expectations last time at Greyville All Weather, finishing seventh and beaten 7 lengths starting at $4.30. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GRUE OF ICE (3) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at Greyville All Weather, beaten 0.8 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so she should be in contention again.
