ENSIGN ARIA (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 7 lengths when fourth over 1200m at Wanganui eight days ago. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. MY FERRARI (1) stepped out for his debut over 1000m at Trentham back on December 7 and finished fourth, beaten 14 lengths. Expected to be very competitive. NIEMI (4) is a filly by Microphone and out of the dam Dancer's Tale. Cost AUD $ 4,000 (Magic Millions 2023 Gold Coast National Weanling Sale) as a yearling. Recent trial winner. Rates well here, among the chances. FAST NET (6) is a two-year-old filly facing the starter for the first time. From a strong family that has produced at black type level, being by Swiss Ace from Internet. Was out of the placings at Taupo at her only trial. Looks one of the better chances despite a tricky barrier.
