BEECHUNO (6) improved sharply on her eleventh two starts back at Orange with success over 1200m at Warren two weeks ago, getting home by a long neck. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role again. KEROESSA (8) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on 28/12/2024, finishing ninth and beaten 3.5 lengths over 1600m at Gilgandra. Comes here with definite claims. MISS PIERA (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Warren, beaten 9 lengths into seventh after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. CALMUNDI (7) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1200m at Warren after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Well placed and can figure in the finish again.
