Verdict

Princess Midnight is interesting off her low weight, but her form leaves her with something to find so the list of possibilities is headed by Gonnabegood and CRACKING DESTINY. The selection's chance is not obvious, but he has looked a horse with ability on more than one occasion and he could be ready to strike in his first handicap. Others to consider in a competitive opener are Mountain Of Mourne, Slaying The Dragon, Morehurrylesshaste and Shintori.
  1. Cracking Destiny
  2. Gonnabegood
  3. Slaying The Dragon
