ERIZA SPARKLES (2) is a progressive type who recorded her 14th career win last time out (29.24) at this track. Has a strong record here at this journey including five wins. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Expecting another bold showing.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by one length in a Grade 4 last start at this track, clocking a brilliant 29.49 for the 520m trip. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a neck second over 450m Shepparton in 24.71. Has run hot time here with a 29.42 PB at the distance. Key chance.

Good effort to win last start by 2 lengths over 520m at Cannington in a handy (29.65), beating Giacomo. Will find this a bit tougher, happy enough to avoid.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won easily by 4.5 lengths at Nowra (36.14) beating It's All Bad in a NG on March 5. Hard to have this time.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 4th in a NG on March 19 over 520m at this track behind Taw Major beaten 5.5 lengths (29.92). Looks tested in this company.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (29.81) in a NG, finishing a 8 length fourth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
