Verdict

A chance id taken with 33-race maiden HUGHIES BAY. The 10-year-old has not been disgraced in a couple of starts since December and has ran with plenty of credit in similar contests in the past. The gelding has hit the frame at the track and over a similar trip previously. Knockanora Lady, top-weight Capture The Action and the Tim Doyle-trained Dressednblack all hold viable claims to victory. Beepers Ruby is racing 2lb lower than last winning mark and could go well at a price if rediscovering her form.
  1. Hughies Bay
  2. Knockanora Lady
  3. Dressednblack
