ARTILLERY FIRE (10) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 6f at this track, beaten only one length after being prominent at the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. LADY FERN (13) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 5½f at Hobart, beaten half a length. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SMART ARTIE (3) finished third last time out over 6f at this track, making it six career minor placings. Goes well here with six top-three finishes to his credit. Sure to be about the money again. DUBAI AFFAIR (12) finished third last start over 6f at this track to make it two minor placings from five runs. Goes well here with two top-three finishes to her credit. Must be respected.
