Verdict

SKINNY DIPPIN (3) finished runner-up last start, beaten 1.4 metres, in a nice return to form at Ascot Park Raceway over 1 ?m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a comparable field so she can add to the sound recent effort. ALWAYS BE KIND (4) has been a bit hot and cold and that continued last start when she finished third, beaten 5 metres, in a better performance at Ascot Park Raceway over 1 ?m. Big chance in this comparable race. HONEYCOMB (1) is on the radar after her last-start fourth over 1 ?m at Ascot Park Raceway a week-and-a-half ago. SHOOTFORTHESTARS (8) is better than her last-start run for eighth over 1 ³/16m at Riverton. Has place claims.
