Verdict

This is a race that has been dominated three-year-olds from the big yards and in that respect Mittens and Tirania fit the bill. Both have to defy rises in the weights and have the scope to do so. Another filly from that age group, LUNA BEAR, comes from a smaller yard but is improving at a rapid rate. The form of her latest run looks better with the second winning twice since, including an 8L romp on Wednesday. Hellfire is another progressive filly taking a step up in class. Her style of racing makes it hard to assess how much she may have left to offer, but her trainer is not one to overstretch his horses and she merits respect.
