Verdict

CHIPS AND RICE signalled she is ready to strike when just edged out here last time so looks the way to go in this tightly-knit handicap. Recent C&D scorer Big Bear Hug heads the list of dangers, with Expert Witness and New Heigths both in the picture too.

  1. CHIPS AND RICE
  2. BIG BEAR HUG
  3. EXPERT WITNESS
