PARADA OBRIGATORIA (6) is back after a break of three months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at Cidade Jardim. Has switched to the Andre Luis De Lima stable. Rates highly and should take some beating. UMBRELLA (2) recorded her maiden win three back and is ready to score again after a couple of recent minor placings, the latest when second at this track. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Will give backers a great sight. FANNY MENDELSSOHN (11) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when ninth over 1400m at this track. Stick with her at value. VALENTIA HILL (7) finished a sound fifth at her most recent outing over 1200m at this track. Suited in this line up and is among the better top 4 hopes.
