Verdict

The presence of WEST BALBOA keeps a trio of these out of the handicap and while she hasn't been at her best this term (started out over fences) she can call upon plenty of very solid form in better races than this. She therefore receives the vote in favour of Royale Margaux and Larchmont Lass.

  1. WEST BALBOA (IRE)
  2. ROYALE MARGAUX (FR)
  3. LARCHMONT LASS (IRE)
