MY SHAREENA (7) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then she was always well out of her ground and was beaten 3. 5 lengths when fifth in a 7f contest at Hawkesbury nine days ago. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. VIESTE (6) is a distance specialist who did little and finished 5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1m2 1/2f at Wyong last start after being prominent at the corner, a less impressive effort than her fourth at Queanbeyan the run before. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. KONING (1) was a winner over 1m2f at Canberra last time, racing on the pace before getting the upper hand and scoring by 0. 7 lengths. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from six starts and is expected to be competitive. DRUNKEN SAILOR (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7½f at Hawkesbury, beaten 6 lengths into sixth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
