HUNAINA is an interesting contender running in a handicap for the first time and taking on older horses. She remains relatively unexposed and her shrewd connections may well believe they have found her a decent opportunity. Tithonus looks as though he is close to concert pitch and should be on the premises once again, while Imagine If is a contender if reacting positively to the first-time headgear. Peticoat Goverment, Rapid Applause and Aggression are others with claims.
