Verdict

This is an open looking handicap where MISS BALLYGALLY could be the one to be on. She looks on a workable work and put in some great performances towards the end of last season, which she can build on here, especially if her favoured testing ground is what comes up. Twice her age, Hurricane Twister is nonetheless capable of running a big race, again given conditions are in his favour, while Bay Hill ticks many of the boxes to go well here if stripping fitter for a poor run over hurdles after a recent long break.
  1. Miss Ballygally
  2. Hurricane Twister
  3. Bay Hill
