Verdict

Many of these will have come here hoping for better ground than is currently forecast. Admiral Brian, Brave Out and Peace N'Milan have been in good form and conditions are in their favour, although neither appeal as being well-handicapped. In contrast CEREALICE is improving with each run and the form of her latest run was boosted when the fourth won a handicap by 25L next time. Her French form shows she handles testing ground and she can take full advantage of the weight she receives.
  1. Cerealice
  2. Admiral Brian
  3. Brave Out
