RUSSIAN ROSE (3) resumes. After filling a minor placing at her last appearance at bathurst over 7f on october 27. Has switched to the Robert Quinn yard. Capable of playing a major role. EXTREMELY FRILLY (1) resumed last start over 5½f at Hawkesbury and showed little early speed, settling well back but hitting the line hard to finish second, beaten 1.75 lengths. Watch for another barnstorming finish. REINE OF NINE (9) resumed last start over 5½f at Bathurst and showed little early speed, settling well back but hitting the line hard to finish second, beaten 0.6 lengths. Will be tough to stop again. MISS ADAMAS (2) was well fancied last time and finished a close second over 5f at Gilgandra to remain a maiden. Will find this a little tougher but is not to be discounted.
