Verdict

LOST CONNECTIONS signalled she's ready to go close again when an encouraging C&D fourth last time out so gets the nod in a handicap where lots arrive with a question mark against them. Bolintlea has an absence to overcome but could emerge as the chief threat off a lenient mark, with fencing newcomer Isabella Bee and last year's victor Dicey Rielly also worthy of consideration.
