Verdict

Malaspina is very interesting in a weak race, now that she tries hurdles for a top stable. She could go well, though there are slight stamina doubts about her, which is not the case with EBONY GALE. For her, it is jumping that is an obvious issue, but in the hope that she can go clear, she is given the nod. Stablemate Precious Bounty is not written off, while Go As You Please, Sign Of War and Cardigan Bay are others who could go well.
  1. Ebony Gale
