Beeno has been a standing dish here down the years but FIRST QUEST won this last year and carries 8lb less today taking into account Thomasina Eyston’s claim. Derracrin was second at Perth last time but is a modest maiden but Redwood Queen should go close being only 3lb higher than when taking a mares’ handicap over course and distance six weeks ago. Allbetsoff has changed stables while Into The Sunset has struggled for form lately.
