Verdict

William Haggas' three-year-old LISTEN TO THE WIND has made a bright start to her handicapping career and can take this step up in class in stride to gain what would be a third career success. Top-weight Red Starlight has a touch of class so should provide stiff resistance. Also not ruled out here is Divinity who like the selection is open to more improvement.
