Verdict

One of the three sprints on the card and the best in terms of quality with Lydiate Lady looking to be off a decent mark and she has gone well fresh before plus she has a C&D win to her name. Global Melody still looks unexposed as a sprinter with connections bringing him back to the minimum trip that proved the catalyst for his last win. HONEY GG has never finished out of the first two over C&D and she’s taken to maintain that record having shown that she was still progressing despite being beaten last time. Ghost Buy is the most interesting contender although he’s not ideally drawn but any positivity in the market should be noted given his connections.
  1. Honey Gg
  2. Lydiate Lady
  3. Global Melody
