CAPORETTO (11) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a third over 7f at this track. The engagement of Chris Parnham is noteworthy. Faces an easier assignment so he is ready to find the winners' list. MUST BE NICE (10) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed so expect another big run. EXQUISITE TASTE (1) is fresh from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Northam over 6½f. In a different yard now. Placed in a recent trial. Comes here with definite top-three claims. MYSTERIOUS FORTUNE (7) got off the mark when resuming from a lay-off over 6f at Pinjarra Scarpside last start, scoring by one length. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Tougher task this time but expected to be competitive again.
