X GENE (3) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time when beaten 0.3 lengths into second over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Among the leading chances. S S FLAMINGO (8) finished third at this track two runs back but was less effective last time over 5½f at this track (Dirt), finishing 9 lengths back in sixth. Will enjoy a drop in class so she is perfectly placed to score. CANTAFIO (9) raced below her best last time when sixth over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 22 lengths. Nicely placed to make amends. HOLLY ROLLER (1) improved last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third over 5½f at this track. This looks a good race for her and she is one of the key runners.
