Verdict

This could turn out be a more competitive heat than normal for this grade around here with the two Irish challengers making this interesting. SHAMASH catches the eye on account of having a top rider booked. He has produced some eyecatching performances this winter and this could be his race. Ian Jardine saddles a pair who need to be checked in the market. Magistral is the most interesting having posted a good effort over this trip before finding trouble over shorter last time. Pour L'amour represents an in form trainer/jockey combination and she is back to her best trip.
  1. Shamash
  2. Magistral
  3. Pour L'amour
