MISS MOLOKAI (11) was too good for a maiden field last start over 4½f at Mt Gambier, scoring by a neck. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Can go right on with the job now. ARROANCE (5) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only fourth over 5f at Cranbourne. Will find this a little easier than last time. Better placed this time and is a genuine threat. REEL LIPPY (7) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 5½f at Kerang. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from four starts. One of the main contenders. FACTUALLY (3) strode forward early from her wide draw over 5f at Moe last time, leading for much of the way before fading to finish fifth. Blinkers are removed. Should run well.
