Candelita won her maiden over course and distance but has yet to threaten in handicaps while multiple course winner Kingaroo still looks too high in the weights. Honest Strike is on a decent mark but ran a shocker when sent off favourite here last time while Revolving World has been placed at the track but his only win so far came back in 2007. CORN MAIDEN is only a tentative selection but she posted a much better effort when runner-up on her Fibresand debut earlier this month and may finally get to open her account in this.
