EXPLOSIVE JEM (1) produced a moderate effort last time when eighth at this track over 380m behind Lucky Fireball (23.93) in a Grade 5. The form from her last run stacks up well. Has winning claims on her best figures. SHERYL (3) finds it hard to win. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (22.32) at this track. Hard to beat again. SIMULATION (5) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (22.33) in a Restricted WIN at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can feature with the right run. ANOTHER BEAUTY (2) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Missed the frame latest (23.93) when eighth over 380m at this track in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and two places from seven starts. Looks a leading chance.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 380m at this track. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss at big odds two back when second (22.19) over 380m at this track. Has a solid record from out wide but appears tested on latest effort.
