Flower Flora and Wonder Journey can be prominent. WONDER JOURNEY (7) is back from a spell of five months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1200m at this track. Key runner while fresh. ORCHIDEA ROSSA (10) ran well despite being friendless in betting last time over 1200m at this track, finishing second and beaten one length at $20.10. Should feature again. SMILE FREYJA (8) raced on the pace before drawing clear to score a one length win over this course and distance last time. Will give a sight again. FLOWER FLORA (9) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 6 lengths, at this track over 1500m. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
