A few on-pacers lining up so it should be keenly contested. THIS OR THAT (3) is yet to miss the placings in two starts, including a win. Last appeared when she finished third over 1200m at this track on June 24. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Expected to be in the finish. MOSCOW MISS (2) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at this track over 1200m last time, finishing tenth and beaten 5.5 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. MYSTICAL BUTTERFLY (1) finished 4.5 lengths adrift in ninth last time at this track in a disappointing performance. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. WHIRLYBIRD (8) knuckled down strongly to get within a nose of the winner in second last start over 1200m at this track. Among the main hopes.
