A number are capable of leading. GRINS (3) was heavily bet to win here 7 days ago first-up and found one better. It was a good effort and she will present fitter. Maps for the run of the race and can make amends. FORBIDDEN GEMSTONE (5) races forward and has threatened at her last two. Keeps the handy 2kg claim and from a good gate will get every chance to go one better. ROSY SUE (11) will be fitter and two back was beaten a lip here when first-up. Has a wide barrier but the 4kg claim rbrings her into it. BLEUE'S CHOICE (4) got a lot closer here last time improving. He maps to advantage and the in-form Heywood is a key jockey switch for the 3kg apprentice. In the mix as well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Grins.
