This is the most competetive race of the day with Raise The Goblet, Dancewiththestars and Sky Beam all worth noting with the vote going to the last named. Sky Beam has her first run in handicap company and after a fair effort to finish fifth of ten in a fillies conditions race at Wolverhampton she looks to be running off a fair mark here. She has run in some highly competitive events in her limited career but running off a mark of fifty two has to give her a real chance of success. Raise The Goblet will pose as the biggest danger coming from another top yard and again running off what could be a handy mark on his handicap debut so he is to be noted in the betting. As does Dancewiththestars who comes from a yard doing well. But for the winner we return to Sky Beam.
