A very competitive affair where FANDITHA can make use of the handicapper's decision to drop her back to a winning mark having showed nothing of note this season. Proven at this very esoteric circuit, our support is probably more in hope rather than confidence. Kavachi also goes well here and he is likely to be popular under today's rider. Trailblazing is respected granted Mark Johnston's record at the course while Veroon has won over this distance in the past and comes to this engagement following a fair effort at Hamilton last time out. Kindest and Jubail have won races earlier on in the season though both have questions to answer after posting modest runs on their most recent visits to the racecourse.
