LOOK BUSY could prove to be the best bet on the card and she is confidently selected over the likes of Angus Newz and Gentle Guru. Alan Berry has a good strike-rate at this track and his 3-year-old filly arrives here in great form. She was an impressive winner at the Curragh last time and she has a good draw today. She is also proven on this ground so she appears to have everything in her favour for a big run. Angus Newz beat Mango Music last time and he is another that will go on the ground. He has the plum draw today and that could be significant as he does like to bowl along in front, so he should be able to get to dictate from stall 1. Gentle Guru is proven on soft ground and she is searching for her third win on the bounce. She is on an upward curve and she has to be respected, although she has had some tough races of late. Coconut Moon has twice won here in the past so she can't be discounted lightly, but there are some progressive types in opposition today and Look Busy is taken to lead them all home.
