MINTULEE (7) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Moonee Valley, finishing fifth and beaten 2.5 lengths over 4¾f. Will enjoy a drop in class so she will be hard to beat. BRENLYN'S DAISY (1) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 1.75 lengths over 5½f at Wodonga. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins from four runs. Top chance again. ARTISTIC GENIUS (2) was thereabouts two starts ago before a disappointing ninth most recently over 5f at Morphettville Parks. Should enjoy the significant drop in grade. Capable of testing this field. SOTOMAYOR (11) got off the mark over 5f at Bendigo last start, scoring by half a length. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again.
