TROPICAL SUN (4) finished second at Bunbury two runs back but was less effective last time over 5½f at this track, finishing 3. 5 lengths back in sixth. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PENNED (10) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish 11th over 5½f at this track. Well placed and expected to feature. SECRICITY (11) finished tenth two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 7f at this track, beaten only one length. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. NORTHERN IVY (9) ran a better race last start, finishing 2. 25 lengths away in sixth over 7f at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
