Verdict

BRUTAL BELLE (12) was a very smart maiden winner first up at Goulburn. Found the 5f a touch sharp for her last time at Canberra but was strong late. The rise in trip suits, though she will need a touch of luck from the car park draw. GROUP CHAT (15) finds it tough to land her second winning blow but did come awfully close last start when beaten a head here. Drawn well and is worth following up. SWINGING HIGH (6) couldn't justify her market support last start at Goulburn but closed strongly on a day when it was hard to make ground. Strips fitter third-up and is among the key chances. ELASTANE MISS (3) has been solid in her two runs back and should be near her peak third-up. Has been freshened with 38 days, keeping the legs ticking over with a trial in-between. In the mix. ROSIE'S PROPHECY (7) was much better last time at Albury when finishing second. Is open to further improvement fourth-up and is worth including.
