Prize Money: $44,898

LETS N JOY N (6) again drew a wide gate last start but did a good job, beaten a neck into second at this track over 1609m. Recent efforts are full of merit. Good enough to put herself right in the finish. ULTIMATE DESBI N (4) made it two in a row last start when she got the cash by a neck over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field and she is all set to make it a hat-trick. SIMPLY THE BEST (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by 0.8 metres at this track over 1609m. MADRID A (2) is in the mix following a respectable second at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Registered three wins at her last three starts. Last start won by a neck as favourite at this track (1:49.40) beating Fated Fire in on July 3 at $1.60 at the bell was leading. Despite winning form this is likely to prove too tough.
