HOT DANCE (8) returned from a break and was on dirt for the first time last start when 1.75 lengths back in second over 6f at this track. Improvement to come and is expected to go well. DESTINATION (11) was well fancied last start over 6f at this track (Dirt) when second, beaten 2.25 lengths. Blinkers applied so a bold showing is anticipated. DUELA DENT (7) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at her last two runs, the latest when second over 5½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 2 lengths. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. One of the main contenders. CHAMPAGNE DANCE (2) finished 2.75 lengths away in fourth at her last appearance over 6f at this track (Dirt) on February 3. Solid top-three chance on her best figures.
