SOARING LADY (4) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.25 lengths at this course and distance when resuming from a lay-off last start. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. PHUNK (6) pushed forward when resuming last time and boxed on to finish 0.3 lengths away in second over 5½f at this track (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is capable of a big performance. THE NEXT BIG BLING (8) followed an unplaced effort when resuming two runs back with a second last start over 6f at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. VOODOO MISTRESS (5) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.1 lengths. In the right race and is a winning hope.
