STING IN THE TAIL (8) registered her first win when resuming last start over 7½f at Hawkesbury, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Capable of taking the next step. JOYNER (3) is a last-start winner over 6f at Canterbury, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 1.4 lengths. Chad Schofield stays on. Well placed and should be in the finish. VALETUDO (4) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Canterbury, finishing fifth and beaten 1.75 lengths over 6¼f. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. CANDLEWICK (5) finished second last start over 6f at Wyong, beaten a head. Facing a tougher assignment but she is good enough to make a big impact.
