DARLING JOANNA (6) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Couldn't follow that up last time out when prominent at the corner before winding up in second over 1m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. BIRDIE CALL (1) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Has a fair record when second up, including three top-three finishes. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. SIKARA SIKARA (2) dug deep to score in a then was beaten 1.75 lengths into third over 7½f at this track (Turf) last time five weeks ago. Has been in the top three at all four starts here, including two wins. Should be involved in the finish. CUTE DINERO QUEEN (4) turned things around last start and scored by 2 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to play a pivotal role.
