GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS (7) is still a maiden after eight runs and despite that was well fancied last time but couldn't quite get over the line, finishing a close second over 1m2f at Colac. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Best figures should see her run well. PRINCE PINOT (5) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when fifth in a 1m1 1/4f contest at Kyneton a week-and-a-half ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. FINN MAC (4) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 4 lengths away in eighth over 1m3f at Ararat. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. CUT NO ICE (6) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1m at Strathalbyn. Among the chances.
