MISTY VEIL (9) closed last prep with a eighth over 5½f at Gold Coast on January 17. Worth noting that she opened the last campaign with a minor placing at Wyong over 5f. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. ELSKA (6) started at big odds on debut last start when fifth, beaten 2. 75 lengths, over 4½f at this track. Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. LOVE YOU ANYWAY (8) has been in the placings eight times from 17 outings. Last start finished fourth over 5f at Port Macquarie. Goes well here with three top-three finishes to her credit. Sure to be about the money again. VINGT NEUF NOIR (11) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 5f at Kembla Grange when resuming from a lay-off, beaten half a length. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
