Verdict

HEAVENLY RAINBOW can record a second career success and a first in handicap company by taking this nursery event. The selection finished third last time out and can see off his rivals here with Spiritual Impulse who should appreciate the drop in distance capable of finishing runner-up. Third place can go to Rockview Spirit who was the winner of a maiden last time and makes her handicap debut.
  1. Heavenly Rainbow
  2. Spiritual Impulse
  3. Rockview Spirit
