Verdict

LITLMAX (3) made a solid impact on debut two-and-a-half weeks ago, finishing second and beaten 9 metres over 1 5/16m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a comparable field so she is capable of getting the job done. LATHER WITH FIRE (5) finished eighth two runs ago then broke and finished a distant fourth over 1 5/16m at this track at the latest appearance. Only needs to get things right to be in contention. CRUEL MISTRESS (6) is in the mix following a respectable third at her most recent appearance over 1 5/16m at this track. ELISSAS DELIGHT (4) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 1 5/16m at this track last time out.
