Verdict

SASHENKA appeared to do too much too soon under her apprentice rider here last time but on previous form has solid claims in a wide-open affair. If ridden with a little more restraint by her more experienced rider she has every chance. Murray River represents the champion trainer and is respected, although his absence is a slight concern, and Qarasu was reportedly unsuited by the ground when running a shocker at HQ last time. He is surely better than that. Handicap debutants Caravan Of Hope and Hazm are both of some interest, while top weight Sputnik Planum is another to consider.
  1. Sashenka
  2. Caravan Of Hope
  3. Qarasu
