Verdict

A competitive heat with six of the eight runners winning last time out and the two that didn’t running fair races to fill the runner up slot. Hard to leave anything out of the equation but GRACELAND is taken to defy her penalty with the McCain yard in good form and this sharp left-handed track taken to suit her. Cardigan Bay and Henrietta Bell should be respected on their C&D victories although both will find this a tougher task. Phil Kirby does well with new recruits and it won’t be a surprise to see his stable newcomer Dieu Benisse show further progress on her handicap debut. Being held up in a slowly run race didn’t suit Ena Baie last time given an even gallop she has to go close.
  1. Graceland

  3. Dieu Benisse
