APOLOGY ACCEPTED (3) finished second at his most recent outing, beaten a nose, in a nice return to form at this track over 1790m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field so he can salute this time around. LOVE TO DEAL (2) is in good form at present. Finished fourth at her latest appearance over 1800m at Globe Derby Park, beaten 6 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw and she is a strong winning hope. OUR MASTER PLAY (4) finished ninth two runs ago then broke and finished a distant last over 1790m at this venue at the latest appearance. Has the talent to make his presence felt. THE AFRICAN QUEEN (5) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth over 2190m at this course last time out. One for the multiples.

Lines up again after a break of five months. Well beaten at the end of her last preparation at this course and distance when ninth unwanted in the market behind Diamond Krusher. This run will do her the world of good.

At her previous start 6th (Sr3) over 2190m at this track, at the bell was 6th-11 beaten 8 m by Glitzy All Over (2:46.80) on May 29 at $26. Better than last start and deserves another chance.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr3) over 2190m after racing wide at this track, at the bell was 6th-10 beaten 19 m by Only Once Bitten (2:44.30) in M on June 12 at $11. Two runs back was well back in the run when 9th (Fr3) over 1790m after racing wide at this track beaten 25 m by Shes Poppy (2:12.40) on March 27 at $21. Strips fitter now and is a solid top-three chance.
