BORN LITTLE (1) produced a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 365m behind Lizzie Long Legs (21.33) in a Grade 5. Can discover winning form. BLACK BEAR (3) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing eighth (23.05) at this track in a Grade 5. Well placed here and can atone this time. NATURAL ESSENCE (4) started big odds in tougher last time when finishing 5th over 350m at Goulburn. Scored at Goulburn in weaker company the previous run. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Cannot be underestimated. AUSSIE SUMMER (2) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.
