Hard to beat in this suitable race.

CROSSWATER (5) finished second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she cannot be ruled out. Group 3 placegetter DYNAMIC FORCE (1) turned in a nice run last time to finish second over 1200m at this track. Looks to be in the right race so another bold effort is on the cards.
