SPARTA BELL (3) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for two wins and two minors. Missed the frame latest (29.22) when fifth over 480m at this track in an A3. Makes strong appeal on best. RATCHIES SAPHIRE (1) was in the placings last time but prior to that produced a sharp 28.88 win over 480m at this track. Expected to feature on best figures. RICH POTENTIAL (2) was well fancied last time and led throughout to score (28.88) at this track in an A5 over 480m. The form out of last race has been strong. Deserves serious consideration again. GREY DOVE (6) is a last start winner from this box and is in the right race to perform well.

Showed little last start over 275m at this track when beaten 6 len (17.34) behind Tip Top Dance on June 7. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Charged out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional recording 29.07 in a 5 length win at this track last time. Looks a solid hope.
