Verdict

Oceancookie,Sharaby and Ela Paparouna are three against the field in this fillies handicap and the confident vote is given to Oceancookie. The selection won well last time out when beating Queens Echo and although she has a penalty for that win she won a shade cozily and is taken to defy the handicapper under similar conditions here. Sharaby rates the main danger as she also won well last time out when beating Dark Champion but that form has since been let down and for that reason she is passed over on this occasion. Ela Paparouna is another worthy of respect on her latest third behind Zemayla but her best form is on much softer ground. Alsharq also won well last time out when beating Dudley Docker and is another with place claims but this looks much more competitive. Of the remainder All Quiet is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but looks weighted up to her best and for the winner we return to the progressive Oceancookie.
