The three who are likely to be towards the head of the market all won last time out and could well have a little more to give. ISABELLA is the one who probably has the most to offer still and she's just favoured over Whatsthemessage and Pantera Negra who the handicapper may have just about caught up with. Invermere also comes into the equation on her last couple of runs but does look vulnerable to the improvers off this mark.
