SPARKLY (10) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 1.3 lengths from the winner in second over 1006m at Sam Houston Park after being in contention on the bend. Meets some better types this time but she has the ability to test this field. THE GIRL IN RED (8) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 0.9 lengths from the winner in third over 1207m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. LADY ASTRID (11) last appeared when she finished second over 1609m at Canterbury Park (Dirt) on September 20. Sure to make her presence felt. COSMIC CHIC (6) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at today's course and distance when first-up from a layoff last start. Likely to be there at the finish again.
