LOVEONTHELEFTBANK (5) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for third last start over 1609m at Aqueduct Turf (Turf), making it three minor placings in a row. Meeting a deeper field this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. RESORT (2) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1710m at Laurel Turf (Turf) after being prominent at the corner. This looks a sterner test than last time but she is one of the chief contenders. FELIXYN (3) improved last time out, finishing half a length from the winner in second at the end of 1609m at Aqueduct Turf. Goes up a rung or two but she is good enough to figure in the finish. GUM (1) put the writing on the wall last time when a close second at Laurel Turf (Turf) over 1710m. Goes well at this trip, recording three minor placings and cannot be overlooked.

Racing well recently. At the latest run gave a sight but was run down late 3rd of 10 at Aqueduct Turf on June 13 over 1609m, 0.8 len behind Tiz The Lady with 57kg at $4.24. Before that sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 8 at Aqueduct Turf on May 7 over 1710m, 1.5 len behind Mermaid with 57kg at $3.26. Doesn't need to improve much to salute.

At debut, 3rd in a small field at Monmouth Park on June 14 over 1673m, 9 len behind Ms Sophistication with 54kg at $5.80. Encouraging effort on debut and another big run is on the cards.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last preparation 2nd of 9 at Fairgrounds Turf on March 13 over 1609m, 0.5 len behind Sunshine Daydream with 56.5kg at $6.70. When resuming last campaign got back early 7th of 10 at Aqueduct Turf on September 21 over 1609m, 7 len behind Fast Market carrying 56kg at $25.17. This looks a stern test.
