NEVER SAY BOO (6) Ran 6th last run at Florence. Looking for an improved run and suited at this trip in the past. Producing consistent results this campaign. Can measure up to this company. PANDORA'S CUP (5) Ran well when 2nd last run at this venue and has a good draw. Displaying good ability since resuming from a break and gets a reduction in weight. In the mix. CHURCHFIELD LADY (4) First up after a break. Below expectations when 13th last run at Gowran Park but going up in distance. Worth consideration. BLACK NOIR (7) Came in 4th last start at this track. Giving another go here and carrying less weight this time. Solid place bet prospects.
