TARVUE (11) ran below expectations when fresh from a lay-off at Sale over 7f last time, finishing seventh and beaten 3 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. SOCIALLY SASSY (10) was well in the market last time and made it two minor placings from as many runs this prep when 2.75 lengths away in third over 7½f at Mornington. Fitter and should go well. PACIFIC CROSS (6) finished second last start over 7½f at Mornington when she made late ground, beaten 1.5 lengths. Finds a tougher race but she has the ability to test this field. ELOPED (13) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Yarra Valley, beaten 4 lengths into seventh. Has her share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
