Verdict

It might be worth taking a chance on STEP IT OUT GOLDIE, who represents a yard going much better than it was during her qualifying runs and this trip promises to suit now handicapping. Hazy Dream was impressive over C&D a fortnight ago and is the obvious alternative, with Sailing Grace another to consider.

  1. STEP IT OUT GOLDIE (IRE)
  2. HAZY DREAM
  3. SAILING GRACE
