Verdict

CHAPARRAL DREAM shaped very well in blinkers last time, and could be the answer to a tricky handicap with the headgear retained. Raphael is a big danger, but there is a feeling that he doesn't put it all in in a finish, and he may flatter to deceive again. Miss Zizi raced without her usual hood when winning last time, and that may prove the key to her, so she isn't discounted despite a rise in the weights.
  1. Chaparral Dream
  2. Raphael
  3. Miss Zizi
