ARTISTIC VENTURE (2) underrated filly yet to draw a decent barrier in four career runs. Sprouted wings from last on the turn when a narrow fifth over this trip at Randwick in the G2 Sweet Embrace. Returned smart figures on that occasion and watch for her swooping late. STRADA VARENNA (5) showed blistering speed from the wide draw on debut when leading throughout for a dominant victory over 1100m at Canterbury. Will find more pressure here and expected to be in this for a long way. Goes close. AUTUMN BLONDE (6) surprised at big odds when covering ground to run fourth over 1200m at Randwick in the G2 Sweet Embrace. Has further upside and capable of playing a leading role. MEMO (1) returned from a let-up with a disappointing eighth over 1200m in the G2 Sweet Embrace Stakes at Randwick. Strips fitter and will need everything to go right from the draw. DREAM SIDE (9) eye catching debut when second to Marhoona over 1100m at Canterbury. Further improved and must be kept safe.
