FLOWERDALE (9) gets the nod. Both runs to date have been good, well supported into $2.50 last start at Sale on wet ground, finding the line well for second behind a smart one. Showed improvement there and can make another step in the right direction here. STAR ANGEL (13) comes back slightly in trip third up having disappointed at Geelong when sent around $1.80 last start. The fresh effort was excellent, she can bounce back in a big way here. RASP (4) has been rock solid in two runs back from a spell and should be at peak fitness now. Like him getting to 1400m and can have last crack at them. SHE REX (11) comes down from NSW having disappointed when in the market at Goulburn last time. Her prior form and starting prices in good maidens is worth noting. Can win.
