Verdict

WHITE CAVIAR stayed on well into third in a listed contest at Gowran last time and she's open to further improvement back in handicap company, so she gets the nod over the thriving Burren Song. Hell Bent is another one to consider with cheekpieces applied for the first itme.

  1. WHITE CAVIAR (FR)
  2. BURREN SONG (IRE)
  3. HELL BENT (IRE)
