DULCE VICTORIA (3) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing second last time when she was always up in the leading division over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. MISS SHADY (5) held on well to finish second last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt), beaten a nose. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MAGICGIRL (4) turned in a decent effort last start when she worked home well to finish third over 1106m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. JEN'S BATTLE (6) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her last appearance at this track (Dirt) over 1207m on July 17. Comes here with definite top-three claims. Something for the Multiples: OPULENT WAYS (8)
