Verdict

It took HIDDEN SPARK a long time to get the hang of the racing game but she has showed in her last three races she is a very capable filly who may just be still ahead of the handicapper. She is aided here by a low draw and may be the one they all have to beat. Clifftop is another horse on the up and was not beaten far when upped in the wights and distance last time out. A reproduction of that effort over this shorter trip should see him go close while Fashaar competes after a long break but loves this track and has run well fresh in the past.
  1. Hidden Spark
  2. Clifftop
  3. Fashaar
