Race Tip

ROMANTIC MISS (11) went forward last start over 5½f at Horsham and held on well for second, beaten half a length. Has the class to build on that strong effort last start. ARDESHA (9) has not raced since her debut on May 3 over 6f at Donald when she finished ninth, beaten 7 lengths. Has blinkers added so she should be very sharp. LARKIN (3) did his best work late and finished third last time over 5f at Yarra Valley when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1. 5 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. BUNDORAN (7) returns from a lay-off of eight months and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished fourth at Werribee over 5f when when resuming last time in work. Fitter for a minor placing in a recent Horsham trial.
