PAPAVERO PRINCESS (8) turned in a good effort on debut five months ago when 0.6 lengths away in second at Northam over 5½f. Has not been to the races since that outing. Ran fourth in a trial at Lark Hill over 4¾f. Sure to have improved over the break and is expected to prove tough to beat. LIBERTY DAME (4) has filled a minor placing on three occasions in seven starts. Failed to add to the tally last time out when fourth over 6f at this track. Has a solid record at this journey, finishing in the money on two occasions. Top chance to break through. BRONTE'S DREAM (6) finished second last time over 5f at Belmont Park, beaten 3.5 lengths. This is a more suitable contest and can get the job done. STAY ASTERN (2) is progressing well, last time out finishing second over 6f at this track. Big chance to grab a well-deserved win.
