MISS BELLA BABE (1) goes very well here starting eight times for three wins and two minors. Was out of placings last time (26.64) at Warragul in a Rank Limit - Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 11 lengths. Expected to be in the finish. SMOOTH TIGER (8) had been racing well prior to her last start fourth at this track following a Grade 5 win three back with a second placing. Well placed here and can atone this time. DR. MONICA (6) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Finished third (26.45) at Warragul last time making it two minors on end. Solid record at the distance winning three races. Leading chance. OUR MABEL (3) cannot be underestimated. Something for the Multiples: SUMMER HAIL (7)

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow sixth (19.88) over 350m at Healesville. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.
