GROVESHILL FLARE (5) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 450m (28.75). VINEGARHILL SPY (4) is down a grade after finishing fourth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 450m (28.68). Suited here and looks a leading player on best. MALIBU BARBIE (6) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing sixth (29.04) in an A8 at this track. ZESTY BLUEBERRY (1) hit the frame with a close-up second two runs back then claimed an A9 by half a length at this track over 450m (28.51) last time. Up a notch this time but in form and sure to give a good account.
