AFRICAN PIONEER (1) turned things around last start and scored by a head after being in the firing line on the turn over 1m2 1/2f at this track. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done again. CAPULET (2) showed good early dash and led for most of the way before fading to finish 5.5 lengths away in fifth over 1m at Ballarat. Strong record with Sarah Field aboard, including two wins. Fitter and ready to win. SHADEELAA (5) finished 4 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1m2 1/2f at this track, an improvement on his 12th at Flemington the run before. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. QUITE THE LASS (6) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m3f at Pakenham Synthetic, beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
