VALENTINE EVE (4) was in contention on the corner and progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1106m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SOUTHERN WAY (3) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. GOING SHOPPING (7) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 2 lengths when fifth in a 1106m contest at this track four weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. BRIDE (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into seventh. Nicely placed to find some form.
