Verdict

Kinglami and Whitecrest are veterans who have conditions to suit on a track where both have fared well. The latter has a highly praised claimer on board and that offsets the harsh rise she got following her latest victory. Charleston Belle got going too late in a slowly run race last time, but she is up in grade and her latest winning form has not been working out well. Major Assault has dropped below his winning mark and now has Silvestre De Sousa on board. JUST AN IDEA finished fourth in Listed company last year and it has taken time for his mark to recover. He looks better treated now, gets a handy pull with Kinglami and drops in class following an impossible task at Goodwood.
  1. Just An Idea
  2. Whitecrest
  3. Kinglami
