This is a much stronger heat than the first division. Hard Times and Punches Pious landed divisions of a similar handicap over the track and trip last month with the former just producing the better time. Lily's Prince, who was third behind the latter that day, has since run very well at Down Royal and has to be respected despite his big weight but Lady Ranger looks held. VALENTANA was close behind in that Down Royal event where she finished strongly. She hasn't had much racing and is one of the few here with scope so she's handed the vote. Full Shilling is held by the selection while Locus Standi has shown his best form at Dundalk.
