CHAMPAGNE CINDERS (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5½f at Hobart, beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. NEEDS SUGAR (1) last appeared when she finished ninth over 6f at Launceston on February 28. Has found the right race. QUICKEN UP (2) hasn't been far away lately, beaten 2.25 lengths at her most recent appearance when fourth over 6f21yards at Launceston. Will find this easier than last start. Has claims on her best form. FEAR THE STING (6) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at Hobart, beaten 2.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
