ANIA has won or placed in 3 of six starts on soft ground, one of them against Balastier over 1100m. Got back last start and made late ground when resuming, but was able to run the quickest last 800m of the whole meeting. Winner Catwalk Icon then placed in $150k 3yo race at her next start. MAGNEA placed on heavy 9 track five starts back and didn't help the cause by racing keenly through the first half of that race. Swamped very late in most recent start. PHANTOM PRINCE got badly held up here last start when needed to be building momentum. Definitely blinkers first time and wide draw on wet track will suit. DE LA ROCHA comes off a long break due to general soreness in the near foreleg. Has a solid heavy track profile winning. SKELLIG ROCK has run well in two recent runs on soft 7 tracks. Very fit.
