Slick pace with Hermanita finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. GORBACHEV (6) didn't measure up in a much richer contest last time out but did string three wins together on the bounce prior. Is two from two around this circuit and a return to form would not surprise. HERMANITA (5) grows a leg for hoop Fenlon who has five wins and eight placings from 17 steers. Again gets the benefit of her 2kg claim and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. The well-related SULTRY SIREN (11) (half to 2xG1 winner Shadow Hero) saves her best form for this circuit and draws favourably in gate one. Looks a definite top-three prospect. MISTER BIANCO (2) has placed two from three over this course and distance and can give backers a sight. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gorbachev to bounce back.
