MIXED SPICE (8) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher Gold Edition Plate won by Abounding over 6f at this track, beaten 6 lengths into 11th. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Expected to feature. CAVAUP (10) peaked on her run when resuming last start over 6f at Gold Coast, winding up in fourth. Steps up in journey this time. Facing a tougher assignment but should be in the finish. TARPS (1) settled well back then made some inroads and finished 1.4 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6f at this track two weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Bailey Wheeler who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expected to measure up. READY AZZ EVA (3) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
