LORD VETTORI (1) returned last time with a solid third at Gosford over 1100m after being in the firing line on the turn. Has the talent to take care of this field. PARALIA (3) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1100m at Hawkesbury, beaten 6 lengths. Strips fitter and can bounce back. LITTLE GIRL (11) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 8 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1400m at Wellington. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. LUNA CRUISER (12) is finding the breakthrough elusive, beaten 6 lengths into seventh at her latest appearance over 1850m at Newcastle. Won't find this as tough. Well placed and expected to measure up. Among the better hopes.
