LADY ALABAMA (10) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1015m at this track when second, beaten 0.6 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a lovely run so she should be in the finish again. YOUTHFUL GROOVE (6) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing one length from the winner in third over 800m at Warwick. Big chance based on that effort. HOMELAND (3) finished third, beaten 1.2 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1015m at this track after he worked home well. In the right race and is one of the big hopes. DARLING TAKE CARE (7) was beaten 1.5 lengths into second at Toowoomba two starts ago then finished 1.1 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at Eagle Farm. Drawn out but will wind up late. This looks a nice race for her.
