Verdict

Topweight Melburnian can run a big race here with conditions set to suit. She was fairly impressive winning last time out at Leopardstown and despite a hike in the weights, she may prove too strong for her rivals. Moktamel is a very game and consistent performer who should run his race and the gelding has definite place chances. A cautious approach should be taken with Cautious Approach because the mare's best form has come on the AW but if able to translate it to turf, she could run a big race.
  1. Melburnian
  2. Cautious Approach
  3. Moktamel
