Tagula Bay gets the confident vote to win this fillies contest with Fantaisiste and Rancho Cucamonga rating the main dangers. The selection comes to herself at this time of year and, although disappointing last time out, that can be put down to the soft ground. The return to this faster surface is sure to suit and off what looks a fair mark she looks the one top be on. Fantaisiste rates the main danger on her latest second behind Resplendent Nova but she is rising in the weights without winning and, for that reason, is opposed. Rancho Cucamonga has the ability to go close but does not always consent to use it and, at his likely odds, she looks worth taking on. Pertemps Magus hails from the same yard as the selection but looks the second string on jockey bookings. Skiddaw Wolf is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she looks very exposed. Of the remainder, Bird Over could go well at a price but her best form is on a softer surface and, for the winner, we return to Tagula Bay.
