Verdict

KLEVA CONNED (5) got the job done over 1 ?m at Ascot last time out in a strong performance and she looks well placed coming back to provincial level. The inside draw should see her get every chance in the run and the extra trip won't hurt. Can go back-to-back. MISSIJAY (8) will roll forward from out wide and try to dictate the tempo as she has done recently. Riordan's claim sees her right down in the weights and she rates highly on her recent efforts. Can give a bold sight from the front. BELLA VIOLETTA (6) gets the blinkers on for the first time today after a disappointing effort at Narrogin last start when favourite. Her form prior was strong however and a return to that form would see her hard to hold out. ROYAL CREST (2) was too good last start and looks to be building nicely. Worth plenty of thought. SKY GOD (1) is next best with the rise in trip suiting him.
