Has taken a step forward the last twice; split a number of these rivals over 1m4f here (maiden) when a comfortably beaten third last month; Richard Fourie booking heightens interest; needs to be respected.

Encouraging effort when third over 7f here (maiden plate) a week ago; has displayed improved form on last two starts; she's an attractive contender as recent display was promising.

Verdict

A tight affair on the figures. Straight Red is respected while Jet O War poses a serious threat to the tip. However, TOTAL ERUPTION is selected here. She is pretty solid on the strength of her latest effort.
