JENNI THE TANK (7) did a good job last start to finish second at Donald over 1m3f, beaten 1.3 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. Will find this a little tougher but can measure up. INSTINCTIVE SPIRIT (6) was beaten 0.8 lengths into second at Hamilton two starts ago then finished 2 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at Geelong. Blinkers added this time. Overdue and expected to go very well. NAJLE (8) was in contention on the turn and finished second last start over 1m4 1/4f at Mornington, beaten a nose. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is capable of a big performance. TULCHAN (5) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1m4f at Geelong after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle.
