Outland was impressive at Nottingham but may not prove as effective over this shorter trip which will be of no concern to Iguacu who should be on the premises but a tentative suggestion is to side with LAURA LAND. There's precious little in the form book to support Laura Land's claims here but she did run one of her better races at this track when qualifying for a mark and may fare better now returned to grass following two runs on the all-weather and it's encouraging to see Liam Jones back in the plate. Outland landed a gamble in good fashion but that was over a mile six and connections may just have taken the decision to chance their arm under a penalty before his new mark comes into effect; he has to be viewed as the likeliest winner given the strength of the opposition but all of his best form is over further. Iguacu and Libre are consistent performers at this level but neither could be described as prolific so we're prepared to take a chance with Laura Land.
