GOOSEBUMPS (6) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing fourth over 6f at this track last start. Should park just off the speed. Likely to feature. CARMEL ROSE (4) built on a nice second when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at this track (Dirt) with success over 6f at this track (Dirt) six weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Deshawn L Parker scored on her last time and retains the mount. Looks well placed so expect another big run. COUNTESS COLETTE (2) ran on strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1m1/4f in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. ELECTRIC MELODY (1) did a great job to score by 10 lengths over this course and distance last time out to continue her outstanding recent form. No reason she cannot salute again.
