GOLDEN CITY (4) returned from a lay-off four weeks ago when she was beaten 18 lengths into sixth over 6f at this track. Strips fitter and can take care of this field. STRUMMIN MARY (8) is yet to break through but has been in the money four times including last start when third over 6f at this track (Dirt). Has weighed in at all two tries over this distance. Backmarker who keeps coming. Leading contender. FRANCESNFRIENDS (9) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 9 lengths into fourth over 6f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. DIAMOND COUNTRY (7) failed to figure again last time over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 12 lengths into seventh. Cannot be left out of calculations.
