DAKOTA (4) had the money on fresh up, and got the job done by a short-head in a driving late finish on the turf here nearly 3 weeks ago. She will be even sharper second up, and the extra 200m is no problem. She is capable of repeating the dose. QUEEN OF NAPLES (3) looked good when winning 2 races on his course last season, and she has had a recent Ashburton trial to sharpen her up for her return. She is stronger now, and she can make an immediate impact. CELTIC BLING (2) seems to be at her best on this surface, and she will be peaking after having 4 runs back from a spell. She lands in the pole position, and she will be hard to hold out. ALIENA (5) let down powerfully from near last on the turn to score comfortably by more than a length at Ashburton 2 weeks ago. She has a superior gate, and with a similar effort, she can figure in the top 3 again. RED LABEL (6) likes to run along in front sometimes, and fresh up, she could take some pegging back should she lead up early on. Include.
