GOLDEN CIRCLES (1) showed the way from barrier rise to score by 1.5 lengths last start over this course and distance. Arnaldo Bocachica sticks. Best form puts her right in this. JULITA (9) has not appeared since she finished fifth over 1106m at Finger Lakes (Dirt) on November 26. Has switched to the Joan A Reynolds stable. One of the genuine hopes in the race. MISS MENETES (3) improved last time out, finishing half a length from the winner in second at the end of 905m at this track after being in contention on the turn. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is right in contention. KILLY START (8) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths over 1308m. Deserves another chance.
