BRAVE SAMANTHA (11) started at $8.90 last time on the back of a win at Hawthorne (Dirt) two starts ago but was below her best, finishing fifth over 1509m at Hawthorne Turf (Turf). Finds a nice race and can get the job done. INTO GOLDEN ROAD (9) finished out of the money two starts back then she was never in contention and was beaten 5 lengths when fifth over 1207m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. THIRSTY NATALIE (3) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt), beaten 2.5 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TEGWAR (2) drifted back and never threatened when eighth last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
