KIKI MEISTER (3) will be fitter for the recent racing and put the writing on the wall at Newcastle last week, coming from a very wide barrier when 3 metres from the winner in second. Had enough speed to lead there so can taken advantage of this more favourable starting position. DOWN WARD DOG (2) draws better than last week. Runner-up here two back and won his only attempt at this distance so deserves another chance. NOTHINGBUTWAVES (7) enjoyed a class drop at the latest appearance, racing parked but digging deep to score by 3.7 metres at this venue. Draws for a trail and if she gets the gaps she can keep the ball rolling. SOVEREIGN PLACE (1) hasn't raced since a win at Menangle nine weeks ago but goes well fresh and gets the ace draw so keep safe.
