Verdict

QUEEN SELYSE (9) just missed two back before a 1.5L defeat on the Scarpside at Pinjarra last time out. She pulled up with a slight issue there and steps out in trip again now. Looks suited by that move, she maps beautifully and she can knock over the maiden in this suitable race. SAFEDEEL (3) was first-up for almost a year over 6f here last start and was very strong late in the race. He'll be better for that effort and now gets Brad Parnham in the irons. Fitter now second-up, the rise in trip is ideal and he can play a leading role. VAMPI QUEEN (12) flew home from the back of the pack first-up over 6f at this track. She'll relish the rise in trip and the softer draw today can see her sit closer. Fiore rides and an improved effort is on the cards. LA NOCCIOLA (10) flew home to just miss here last start and rates highly on that effort. AWARDED GLORY (4) can improve second-up.
