JUNIPAL (2) Group 3 winner. Showed early speed from an outside draw last time then tired over the final stages to finish seventh, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1m at Randwick. Better than the last run and will take running down. SEBRING GIRL (6) saluted at Sunshine Coast two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when seventh over 1m at Eagle Farm, beaten 2.75 lengths after working home well. The engagement of Ms Nikita Beriman is a positive move. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of running a bold race. . Turned in a better run last time when third, beaten 0.6 lengths, at Gold Coast over 7f. Will drift back but wind up late. Should be competitive. WINSTON SMURFHILL (3) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by a head over 7f at Gold Coast. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Should give backers a sight.
