ARTIC BLUE (3) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when third (30.77) at this track and may be close to breaking through. Good form should continue. BABY ARC (1) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth (30.99) in a HCP at this track. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. A big run wouldn't surprise. CAIRO (5) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at his latest appearance in a D4 at this track over 305m (18.88). This easier and can improve sharply. SPARKLER (2) is worth a look over a shorter distance this time.

Returned from a spell last time out in an A6 at this track and finished sixth over 500m (31.83). Will strip fitter and is expected to be competitive.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 0.9 lengths into third over 500m at this track. The recent effort suggests she is ready to win.
