Verdict

AURORA GREY wasn't beaten far last time out and is proven in all sorts of conditions; with De Sousa set to ride for the first time she looks the one to beat. Golden Doyen looks well-handicapped returned to the Flat while Hawkerland and Denmead could be the main dangers with the advantage of having two excellent claimers on their backs.
  1. Aurora Gray
  2. Hawkerland
  3. Denmead
