VILLAGE GIRL (1) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten 1.1 lengths into fourth over 6f at Belmont Park. The winkers have been removed for this and expected to be in the finish. DELTA ANNE (7) hit the frame two starts ago at Belmont Park but ran below par last time when ninth and beaten 8 lengths over 1m1/2f at this track. Has the class to take care of this field. FRUIT LOOPS (13) has not won for a long while. Last raced on December 8 when beaten 0.7 lengths into sixth at this track over 6f after being in contention on the bend. Has the class to get back to winning ways. ELSA'S PRIDE (10) resumed two-and-a-half weeks ago over 5f at Pinjarra and was only beaten 2 lengths into seventh after being prominent at the bend. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish.
