Verdict

HURRICANE RITA is going to be hard to beat in this, even though racing off a 7lb higher mark over a shorter trip. Her latest victory coincided with positive tactics being employed and a career low mark. A similar ride on this track in these conditions may reap dividends. My Little Cracker will have support given her connections. She has won on similar going around here previously and her latest run was a big improvement. The concession of weight all round may tell in the closing stages and Miss Joeking may be more of a threat. The six-year-old has dropped to an attractive mark and has a good rider claiming 8lb. Given her stable's current form it would be no surprise to see this C&D winner playing a major role.
  1. Hurricane Rita
  2. Miss Joeking
  3. My Little Cracker
