RUSSANDA BERTHA (1) had been racing in honest fashion recording three placings in a row before finishing fourth (30.38) at this track latest. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Should be very hard to beat this time. TRULY SPECIAL (5) last start finished 2nd on December 6 over 500m at this track behind Gurtnacrehy Fury beaten 3 lengths (29.91) in an A8. Looks a key player on best form. SLIPPY DANIEL (6) followed a unplaced effort at this track two back with a sound third, beaten 0.9 lengths, last start in an A7 at this track over 500m (30.15). This easier so not to be underestimated. COONOUGH SHEILA (2) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.
