JUST JENNI (8) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second at Cranbourne two starts back then scored by 1. 75 lengths as public elect last time out over 1m2 1/4f at Cranbourne. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LIGHTENING MANN (1) returns from a lay-off of 11 months and is having his first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at Lingfield All Weather over 1m. Fitter for a sixth in a recent trial over 7½f at Caulfield Heath. Capable of playing a major role. SPARKLE LINK (10) will appreciate the longer journey after finishing a solid sixth when resuming last start over 1m at Sandown-Lakeside. Won't find this assignment as tough. Sure to be competitive. ARISTONOUS (3) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 1m3/4f at Sale when resuming from a lay-off, beaten half a length. In the right race and is a winning hope.
