QUEEN OF SHADOWS (8) stepped out on her debut over 6f at Newcastle three weeks ago and finished fifth, beaten 13 lengths. Expected to be very competitive. FIGMENT (7) resumes from a lay-off of 11 weeks. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1m at Gosford. Commenced last prep with a minor placing at Beaumont (Newcastle) over 5¾f. Bold showing expected. BROWNED OFF (1) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish seventh, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 6f at Newcastle. Among the chances. SILENT TOMAHAWK (9) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of S C Jones. By Smart Missile from Think Aloud. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
