Has no Stakes starts to date and<br \/>this lack of experience is a worry here.<\/p>\n<p>(2) DELUSIONAL\t\t13\/1<br \/>May be fitter from last starts 3rd in the 9f The OUR COWS Special<br \/>Stakes. Good Jockey onboard in J.Wesselman but may struggle<br \/>for pace here.<\/p>\n<p>(3) STICKY DIAMOND\t\t17\/1<br \/>Never been unplaced so far in her career.<br \/>Has got a good finish. Go by her starts in the ALL STAR Honor<br \/>Memorial Stakes and The Strike The Pose Memorial for a guide.<br \/>But others have more appeal.  <\/p>\n<p>(4) JEN JEN DYNAMO\t\t12\/1<br \/>Big run 2 starts back in The PHARBONE WISH (FR) Challenge Stakes.<br \/>In the boom and bust cycle of her form she should be doing her best this week,<br \/>but you\u2019ll have to take her on faith.<br \/>Chance of getting in the money if she does everything right.<\/p>\n<p>(5) DARK FLASH (AUS)\t\t6\/1<br \/>Super run last time out in SILVER SPOON Juvenile \u2013 G2 and<br \/>already has a stakes win to her name over this trip.<br \/>And I still think it\u2019s the one to beat here despite C.Milhouse riding it,<br \/>it\u2019s the best ride they\u2019ll get all year.<\/p>\n<p>(6) CANNOT COMPLY\t\t7\/1<br \/>Win in the DelPenn Champions Day \u2013 Juvenille fillies Stakes race two<br \/>starts back is nothing to sneeze at. Has recorded solid speed figures and<br \/>one feels that a big run is just around the corner for her. Has a fine<br \/>Jockey in J. Dyson. <br \/>Not without its chances and will be trying. Each-Way chance.<\/p>\n<p>(7) LADY OF THE BEST (IRE)\t\t11\/1<br \/>Has been steadily improving since a switch to turf earlier in its career.<br \/>Use the 2nd place finish in The RAINBOW BRIDGE II Special Stakes start<br \/>as your guide. Should be fitter from last start over 8.5f but may just<br \/>not have enough firepower here.<\/p>\n<p>(8) TORCH SONG\t\t10\/1<br \/>Her form is all over the place, a lackluster effort last start in Ireland over 6f<br \/>in The Whodini Shootout \u2013 G2. She needs to recapture the form that won her the<br \/>BOOKER .T Handicap \u2013 G3 over this distance. Has a great jockey onboard<br \/>in R. Williams and he may just be able to tame this wild one.<br \/>Can get into the money if she doesn\u2019t throw the jockey off first.<\/p>\n<p>(9) MALINDI\t\t6\/1<br \/>Has five wins from nine starts, latest form is four wins in a row; with<br \/>three of those being Stakes starts. But her only trip over the routes which<br \/>was on dirt was unsuccessful. Her toughest test to date, and a small query<br \/>over the distance. Has ability and could be a surprise packet here,<br \/>as a turf route start may actually suit her.<\/p>\n<p>(10) CELESTIAL REEF (IRE)\t\t8\/1<br \/>Another filly with mixed form, raced well in The I\u2019M SLEW TOO Challenge<br \/>Stakes over 8.5f, and in the 8f The HARDLY WITH MARC Special Stakes.<br \/>Has an okay jockey onboard in W.D Bubba.<br \/>One of the main chances here.<\/p>\n<p>(11) PERFECTA\t\t7\/1<br \/>Proved her versatility by running a close 2nd last time out in the<br \/>9.5f  SISTER RUM Classic Cup, and has allowance wins over this trip<br \/>but it is hard to see her toppling the heavyweights here.<\/p>\n<p>(12)  BRUCIE BONUS\t\t9\/2<br \/>Has never been unplaced in her seven career starts, with five wins<br \/>and two of those being stakes wins. Good win in the DANCER R. Special<br \/>Stakes over this trip and will be hard to keep out of the money here.<br \/>Will challenge for the win.<\/p>\n<p>CONCLUSION<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll have to tip, Darkflash (AUS) on her last start run for the win here, but 2nd and 3rd is<br \/>very tight, Celestial Dancer (IRE) on her best should get 2nd but she may not fire.<br \/>Brucie Bonus is ultra-consistent and will feature somewhere in the placings<br \/>maybe even win if things don\u2019t go right for Darkflash (AUS) in the run.<\/p>\n<p>Selections:<br \/>(1) DARKFLASH<br \/>(2) CELESTIAL DANCER<br \/>(3) BRUCIE BONUS<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Girls just want to have fun !!
