SWEET (8) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 3.5 lengths (19.38) at this track. Was well in the market last start and a forward showing wouldn't surprise. PATCH IT UP (4) filled a minor placing last start at Cambridge Raceway behind Iris Haze (22.03) in a Class 1. Has the pace to be prominent. Expected to be in the finish again. AFFECTIONATELY (3) comes into calculations after placing at this track and distance most recently.

Nearing another win after her success on July 20 at this track over 318m. Last start was second over 318m in 19.08, behind Nordic Delight. In the money last time and looks well placed. Worth thought.
