MOANA only found one better on the day on debut and does look the one they all have to beat. WITHOUT REMORSE showed vast improvement last time out and is likely to be a threat yet again. THE REASON is consistent and would not be a surprise winner. SAVARA'S PRINCESS and SWEETSUMMERLOVE both hold place chances in this line-up but do need to improve to win. DEVIOUS LOOKS is an Erupt filly who makes her debut for a trainer who knows what is needed to win on debut. FLORAL FURY and HEAVENLY LACE have only had one run each and are capable of improvement.
