SWEET PAREE (9) is a distance specialist who was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1300m at Wodonga, beaten 1.2 lengths into sixth. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she cannot be taken lightly. GROUP CHAT (8) is high on confidence after scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1200m at this track last time out. Gets some weight relief this time. Well placed and should be in the finish. WEXFORD MISS (6) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when eighth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1400m at Goulburn. Cherry-ripe now and is expected to run well. XCEPTIONAL FELLA (2) was safely held when third last time out over 1400m at Canberra, beaten 3 lengths, after a win at Canberra at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
