PUNK ROCK IVY (3) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at this track over 500m. Will give a great sight again.

AIRLIE COOGEE (6) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 500m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Thereabouts last start but looks tested this time.

Turned in a better effort over 500m at this track last start, finishing second behind We Are Leeds in an A8. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Looks a strong winning hope.

Got back early in the race last start when fourth over 500m at this track. Before that won by 0.8 lengths at this track (30.40) beating Punk Rock Zelda in an A9 on January 24. Has ability and looks a winning hope.
