ARTICULATE (1) has an honest record despite remaining a maiden and is long overdue for a win, having placed six of nine career runs. Has hit the frame at the last three starts. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. AXEDALE PRINCE (2) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (22.92) at this track behind Belle Riot in a Maiden. Stalked the pace but found the line strongly. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Expected to feature again. SERRATUS (8) is a 12 start maiden who has placed four times, the latest finishing seventh at Shepparton. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Has ability and is one of the better chances. ONE STRANGE UNIT (7) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.
