TRAIS FLUORS made a winning start in gutsy fashion for this yard over C&D last month, and with a 7 lb claimer more than negating a small rise in the weights, Linda Perratt's 9-y-o is taken to follow up at the expense of Star Shield, who found only stablemate Hortzadar too strong over C&D 5 weeks ago. Showmedemoney and Open Choice are another couple to consider in what looks a wide-open contest.
