LUZ NOS OLHOS (2) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when second over 1000m at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. TALBOT JULIEN (1) is resuming from a break of 11 weeks for a new stable after finishing seventh over 1000m at this track at her latest outing. Generally runs well when fresh, recording three minor placings from four runs. Among the leading chances. MY CHERIE BELLA (6) resumes from a spell of eight months. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Opened last prep with a third over 1100m at this track. Expected to run well. SPECIAL FORCE (7) did a great job to score by a nose over this course and distance last time out to continue her outstanding recent form. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
