ALPINE ASH (5) improved last time out, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 6f at this track. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GIO FACTOR (6) recorded a strong maiden win over 6f at this track (Dirt) last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and she is a solid top-three hope. THE BIGGER BEAR (8) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 6f at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. DIAMONDSFORAYBRIE (1) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), finishing 8 lengths from the winner in fifth. In the mix.
