VAN HALEN has the experience and is the only winner in a small field of 7. The one to beat. OVER SHARING and filly LADY JACKSON weren't disgraced on their debut efforts and will come on. Watch the first-timers especially BARAHIN.

EXQUISITE TOUCH has great form over this distance and is well in at the weights. She rates the one to beat. FREDERICO'S DREAM is never far back and should again be in the mix. On collateral form WINTER WATCH comes into the picture. WRECKING BALL and stable mate QUEEN LAURIE are speedy but the nod goes to the former. JAZAALAH may not be ready for this company yet.

The Princess Charlene Maiden Plate could see FLEXIBLE FUGITIVE finally crack a deserved victory from a good draw. HAFLA also fared well in the barrier position and will make a race of it. Many runners are out to lower their colours including DAN'S EMPIRE, TWO GUNS, READY TO STRIKE, DELPHINE and the reserve runners.

Another full field for the Princess Charlene (fillies) Maiden. SILVEZ is improving with racing and despite a wide draw could take honours. KENTUCKY BLUE has also not fared well in the draw but could run into money. Better drawn are TORTOLA, DUNAS DOURADAS and KINDAVAR and any could take advantage. PICTURE ME could take home a cheque. Watch newcomer THE DRIVER and Reserves.

OH MY DARLING has ability but needs to settle early to make it back-to- back victories. BEING FABULOUS hasn't been far back recently and should again be thereabouts. PEARL OF BAHRAIN is still maturing and the blinkers could improve performance. COLD CASH, WHITE ROSE, JET START and SEPTEMBER BLOOM are looking to upset calculations.

Competitive. Top weight DAME KELLY wasn't disgraced in the Fillies Guineas recently and could give weight all round. REGAL GRADUATION was narrowly beaten after a rest last time and will come on. MAKE ME HAPPY is maturing nicely and could complete a hat-trick off a handy weight. INSIGNIS and CIRCLE OF LATITUDE could get close together and either could score.

Great Empress Club Stakes. SILVAN STAR beat NOTHER RUSSIA recently but the latter bounced back to best when giving Legal Eagle a run for his money. GIMME SIX is as game as they come and should be on top of them on recent form. CASCAPEDIA has won 5 of 6 races and placed in the other - the form speaks for itself. FOLK DANCE and ORCHID ISLAND could get into the mix.

Wide open Spook Express Handicap. EMERALD BAY beat WITCHCRAFT (1kg better) narrowly here recently and they could fight it out again. TAMBALANG was blowing after her last outing and should do better here. PARISIENNE CHIC did well after a rest and could go in. ARTE can never be ignored for money. Any one of the remaining runners could pop up depending on early pace.

Another open event. STAR OF JOBURG needed his last outing and if this is not too soon after could resume winning ways. SHOGUN never runs a dull race but has a wide draw. INFAMOUS FOX found traffic problems last time and could make amends. NOCEUR needed her last run and could feature. LAKE KINNERET could go in again if covered till late. Others could pull it off.

PACHUCO has been threatening for win number 4 and could get his just reward in this field. HUNGRY HEART is ready to give a good account of himself. ALEX THE GREAT could get away from pole position. BUBBLY REPLY is running close up and could get into the money again. MONTY PYTHON could take home a cheque. TIME TO BE GREAT claims 4kg and could overcome a wide draw.
