MOANING COUNTESS (5) drew the outside trap and was game in defeat when only 2 lengths from the winner Barmaid Michelle (16.69) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Overdue and gets her chance. MURDANIEL FIN (4) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 277m behind Ask Julie (17.12) in a D2. Was in the money the start prior. Key player if finds best. INSANE BEAR (1) hit the frame with a narrow second two runs back then claimed a D3 by 1.3 lengths at this track over 277m (17.15) last time. Tackles tougher grade here but in form and looks a contender again. PLUCKANES BELL (6) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.
