UNDER MY THUMB (6) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 6f43yards at Geelong. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Best form puts her right in this. ZWASP (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.1 lengths when fourth over 7f at Sale six weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. EXUBERANCE (11) drifted back early on debut last start then worked home strongly to finish 3.5 lengths away in third at Geelong over 5f152yards. Has ability and must be respected. DOLLAR SHOT (10) resumes from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 6f at Geelong. Ran fourth in a recent trial at Cranbourne. Rates highly on best form and should be in the mix.
