SISTINE CHAPEL (10) finished third last time out over 1m1 1/2f at this track, making it nine career minor placings. Has recorded five top-three finishes from six runs at this venue. Ideally placed to open her account. BLUE AS BLUE (8) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished seventh over 1m3f at Sunshine Coast. Nicely placed and expected to go well. AMERICOLA (11) missed the placings two runs back then settled well back last start when 7 lengths away in eighth over 1m1/4f at Beaudesert. Goes up a rung or two but she is up to the task. DELIBES (6) settled well back last time then wound up strongly in the straight to finish third over this journey at this track. Will be running on late again.
