PISA CAKE (5) resumes after a break of six months. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 6f at Beaumont (Newcastle). Fitter for a eighth in a recent trial over 5f at Hawkesbury. Expected to go very well. HARD TO DISMISS (6) was a new acquisition for the Billy Healey stable last start when she made steady ground to run into second over 6f at Ipswich at the first run back from a lay-off. Looks a great chance in this suitable contest. COOK ISLAND GIRL (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1m at Sunshine Coast, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. LUCKY BEAN (20) was beaten 4.5 lengths into seventh over 5½f at Grafton four weeks ago. Better than recent efforts suggest.
