Verdict

An open-looking stayers maiden which offers another chance to Full Moon Magic to progress from what was a highly encouraging handicap debut. He now steps up markedly in trip on his second start in this sphere, and should be thereabouts. Despite having to come from the back of the field when last seen, Dromana still managed to produce another good effort when runner-up at Down Royal last time and can continue to add to her string of consistent efforts. The horse on the upgrade is CUBAN SURFER though, after she improved for the step back up in trip to 1m2f recently. Stepping up in trip again means there could be further progress to come and she is the one to beat.
  1. Cuban Surfer
  2. Dromana
  3. Full Moon Magic
