GOLDEN LADY (6) was well fancied as favourite latest and led for much of the way but faded to place, beaten 0.7 lengths (22.63) at Shepparton in a Grade 5 over 390m. Top prospect. HIGHWAY (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (22.78) last time in a Grade 5 at Shepparton. Can measure up this time. SMOKIN' GRACIE (2) turned in a moderate run last time when seventh at Horsham over 410m behind Paw Xena (24.37) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. BERRY BLUE EVIE (8) should be thereabouts.
