Race Tip
CUMBRIAN QUEEN (9) made a nice return in a then met with solid backing but disappointed when fifth over 1m at Stony Creek three weeks ago. Fitter and well-placed to turn things around. KENTAHTEN (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 7f124yards at Yarra Valley, beaten a head after being prominent at the bend. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. LUV A DUCK (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when fifth in a 6f contest at Healesville eight days ago. Going up a level this time but he deserves another chance. AMBERARNA (11) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing seventh at Caulfield Heath over 1m1f. This doesn't look as hard so she is sure to be prominent.
