BONJOY (1) scored by half a length last start in the LR Grandstand Cup at this track over 7½f after she came from a long way back on straightening. Has a very good record over this journey with four wins from seven starts. Settles back early but winds up late. Best form puts her right in this. ESSENTRIC NATURE (4) has had two runs since a break, the latest a ninth over 7½f in the LR Grandstand Cup at this track, beaten 3. 5 lengths. ELITE MISSILE (3) has been thereabouts, finishing fourth in the LR Grandstand Cup at this track last time and 1. 3 lengths from the winner. Backmarker who gets home hard. Capable of a big run. SENSESSIONAL (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 7½f at this track, beaten just half a length. The engagement of Chris Parnham is noteworthy. Likely to hold the form and is a strong top-three prospect.
