Verdict

An awful race which in truth looks tailor made for a winning gamble. To this respect there are a few likely contenders, most notably Brae On. However, a couple of these are well handicapped on their form of old, including the eleven-year-old Gorey Lane who sports reasonable course form at this level. However, preference is for HURRICANE RITA who has dropped 11lbs since finishing fifth here in early December, and if capable of recapturing her form from May 2015 is thrown in off 86. She's worth chancing in a poor race. 1. Hurricane Rita 2. Gorey Lane 3. Kings Eclipse
