POLYVANOVA (1) has been about the money without winning, the latest offering a second over 7½f at Albany. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Best figures should see her run well. LORDGIVEMESTRENGTH (7) wasn't far away last time out, finishing sixth over 7½f at Albany. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Among the leading chances. SKY GOD (5) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when ninth, beaten 5 lengths, over 7½f at Albany. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. HOT CHATTER (8) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at Bunbury, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
