A strong tempo assured with Creative Licence and Day Performer leading the charge. KENSINGTON DIVA (5) switched from a Victorian barn and hit the line hard beaten just 1.5L. It was a tough effort from the wide barrier and she will be better for the outing. She's likely to sit handier today and looks well-placed. DAY PERFORMER (7) missed a nose at Hobart first-up spiking her figures. Looks to have turned the corner and Pires is a positive replacement for Baker, who sticks with Kensington Diva. Has the early speed to clear the awkward barrier and will be fitter. CREATIVE LICENCE (1) resumes in easier and should be ready to go. Races forward and enjoys the track and trip. DID YOU DECIDE (2) resumes and is better than the form line suggests. Flies fresh but will need a good ride from the awkward barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Kensington Diva to win.
