CHEROKEE CASTLE (8) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. WITNESS THE ENERGY (4) bounced back last start and landed the prize by a nose after being prominent at the bend over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. COUSIN WINNIE (1) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 4½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race so she is a leading player. JUBA'S PUNCH (2) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 8 lengths to spare over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Form this track is hard to knock with two wins from six starts. Not to be discounted.
