Verdict

VIOLACEOUS (10) resumes from a spell of nine months. Good effort when finishing fourth at the latest run over 5 ½f at Doomben. Looks the one to beat. BRAVE EMMA (3) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second when resuming last time out over 4 ?f at Toowoomba. Well placed and there is no reason why she cannot salute. ARISTOCRATIC GIRL (12) is a maiden galloper who hasn't raced since finishing 10 lengths back in seventh over 5f at Sunshine Coast five months ago. Filled a minor placing in a recent Doomben trial and is sure to be competitive. SHE'S GOT IT (4) was in contention on the corner and finished third last time over 6f at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
