EARTH'S ABUNDANCE showed an excellent change up to sprint clear of rivals in her first attempt on dry ground. Ran quick meeting level rankings. Placed here behind Teine Aulelei and she is a Group 3 placegetter. Coming off long break, but looked sharp in jumpout. FARAKTA is a progressive type resuming, but was luckless in 1100m debut. Competitive in stakes class last preparation and looked the type who improve after a spell. ICED POPPY has a solid record here and last start was badly held up and finished close up in a strong female only BM62. ELENA MONTERO peaked on her run first up, but expecting improvement back on dry surface and Sandown BM66 placing three starts back is good enough for this. NEROLA flew home to win first up on the tight Moe track last preparation, improving to a 2 from 3 fresh record. Likes dry tracks and won't cover any ground from inside barrier.
