IRISH BLISS (4) went fast early over 6½f at Newcastle when resuming last time and dug deep to score by 1.4 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. PIONEER LASS (2) is having her first run since March 28. Goes well when fresh with a win and two placings from four starts. Will strip fitter following a recent trial win. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. AMERICAN STARLET (6) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by half a length when resuming last time out over 6f at Wyong. Looks well placed so expect another big run. FIDDLERS GREEN (3) returns from a layoff of six months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 7f at this track. Now under the care of new trainer Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald. Worth plenty of thought.
