LOTUS ISLAND (1) has won her last two starts with ease. She lost a length leaving the start last time, but quickened up well and won easily. She is in a good space and from pole position should bring up the hat-trick. LADY ZULTANITE (4) was touched off in her last start over 1900m on the polytrack. It must be noted that the winner of her last race has come out and won again since. With a bit of luck from the widest draw, she should pose a massive threat. SWEET NOTHINGS (7) followed up her maiden victory with a creditable third-place finish over this course and distance last start. She is racing well and has op-three claims. HELIOTROPE (3) jumps from a good draw of three and from there should run into the money.
