VIOLET LOVEBUG (9) looks a very talented filly based on what she produced when winning on debut. With natural improvement and from a good draw, she will take some beating again. Banking on her being better than her rivals. DAMPEN (1) brings some decent form from last campaign, including a placing in the SA Magic Millions. He's trialed well enough to suggest he can run a big race fresh. BOOTLEGGER (4) ran a cheeky race against older horses on debut and is open to improvement at his second start. Stable does a brilliant job with their two-year-olds. Including ULLRICH (6) and BLUE ISLES (10) in wider plays.
