OREGON HIKER (1) ran below expectations last time at Bunbury, finishing tenth and beaten 4 lengths starting at 7/1. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. FINANCE LEGEND (13) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when seventh, beaten 5 lengths, over 6f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. COUSIN NICCI (6) ran above expectations and got up for third at long odds at her latest appearance at this track over 5½f. Good signs last time and can feature in the finish. FIRST CONTACT (8) finished seventh over 6½f at Port Hedland at her most recent appearance on June 22. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
