YA LOVE HER (3) raced on the speed last time and was game in defeat when second over 1m4 1/4f at Beaudesert. Leading chance. PLEADEEL (1) settled well back last start and never threatened when 8 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1m1f at Eagle Farm. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. RHODES (5) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 2.75 lengths when fifth over 1m at Sunshine Coast two weeks ago. Has the class to put the recent run of form behind him. KOVANOS (4) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 1.2 lengths, over 1m1f at Sunshine Coast. Can figure in the finish.
