Both STRELLA’S WAR (NAP) and Elite Appeal should probably have won more than once so far. The pair look head and shoulders above the opposition in this claimer and can fight out the finish with the vote going to Rodolph Brisset’s Declaration of War filly, who has the best recent form. Lil Bit Dangerous hasn’t many miles on the clock but Patrick Biancone’s mare has raced since last summer. Paola’s Team disappointed here in March but Time to Two Step has been in fine form, though she’d need to up her game to figure in this company.
