DEAKIN (15) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 3 lengths over 1m2f at Pakenham. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. ARUGAMAMA (10) had a bit on her rivals last time with an impressive 3.5 lengths win over 1m4 1/2f at Morphettville. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Best figures should see her run well. BOLD SOUL (11) started at 4/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing 12th and beaten 6 lengths at Moonee Valley over 1m2 1/4f. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. CARINI (7) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when 11th over 1m at Werribee. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
