Not the strongest Maiden. DARK AVALANCHE (4) had his second start and was sharply improved, beaten 1.9L here over 1200m. He keeps the handy 3kg claim and gave every indication that the longer sprint will suit. GRINGO (2) was also better narrowly beaten at Northam over this distance. Needs a good Faithfull ride, but he just needs to hold the form to go close. ICANDOIT ONMYOWN (6) maps well and brings a string of placings from Kalgoorlie. She maps for a soft run, and the shorter journey shouldn't be an issue. Always puts in and she gets her chance. LEMMOR (9) resumes, and her placing here two back would have her right in it. Brings a solid Lark Hill trial and draws soft. She may be more forward this time around. TRANSCRIBE (3) has a key jockey switch and expect hIM to show more second-up.
