Verdict

A wide-open affair with the vote in favour of CALLIOPE. She ran right up to her best returning from 5 months off when third behind re-opposing Millie The Minx over C&D 23 days ago and a 5 lb pull at the weights may be enough to swing the pendulum in her favour on this occasion. Rubytwo appeals as being on a workable mark and can also get involved.

  1. CALLIOPE
  2. MILLIE THE MINX (IRE)
  3. RUBYTWO
