GIVE ME JOY (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 1280m at Canberra Acton. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. MONARCH EXPRESS (4) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest finishing a 2.25 lengths fourth at this track. Looks well placed here and expected to go close on best form. DERNIER LIEN (10) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1100m at Murwillumbah, scoring by a head. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Jumps from a nice gate and she cannot be underestimated. PUNCH ONE OUT (3) was in the placings when 2 lengths back from the winner last start at Taree on soft going and is down in weight this time. Rates among the each way hopes.
