Plenty of pace likely from Meiner Spica, Hamburg Hammer and Ena Drive battling for the lead from Nishino Mignonne. PURPLE PARAISO (12) went around over this course and distance last time and led from the outset to score by half a length. Could prove very tough to beat. NISHINO MIGNONNE (6) showed early speed from an outside draw last time to lead throughout and score by 3 lengths over 820m at this track. Expected to take some stopping again. ENA DRIVE (7) turned in a fine effort to win by a neck at this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race. MEINER SPICA (3) turned things around last start and got the job done by 1.3 lengths over 820m at this track. Anticipating another big run.
