BRAZILIAN ROSE (1) brings impressive credentials gaining three wins from the previous four starts including winning by 0.75L a 1200m handicap at Southwell AW. Holds winning form at this course. Major player. PARTY BEAR (3) was a nose second in a Kempton Park AW handicap before securing a 0.5L victory contesting a Lingfield Park AW handicap a fortnight ago. Expected to challenge. MERESIDE DIVA (2) bids to turn two placed efforts into a win after a second and third at Southwell AW. Wears first-time blinkers to find that elusive success.

Last start settled well back; won by 0.8 len at Southwell All Weather February 7 over 1200m defeating Ziggy's Queen carrying 61kg at $4. The start before that 5th of 12 at Southwell All Weather on January 30 over 1400m, 4 len behind Saytarr with 61kg at $3.30. Can settle nice and close in the small field and will be tough to stop.

Form hard to fault. Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at Southwell All Weather on February 7 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Brazilian Rose with 61kg at $2.90. The start before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Southwell All Weather on January 30 over 1400m, 0.5 len behind Saytarr carrying 60kg at $15. Worth some thought again.

Recent form sound. At the latest run favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 0.5 len at Lingfield All Weather January 31 over 1400m defeating Dream Of Mischief with 59kg at $3.80. Before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 11 at Kempton Park All Weather on January 19 over 1400m, nose behind I'm Workin On It with 60.5kg at $8.50. Sure to prove hard to beat.

Last start ran last of 8 at this track on February 4 over 1200m, 5 len behind Howzak with 58.5kg at $8. The run before that second last of 7 at this track on January 13 over 1200m, 4 len behind Teardrops carrying 59kg at $4.50. Likely to find this out of reach.
