Not the easiest Conditional Jockeys' Mares' Handicap Hurdle to finish with but PURE GENUIS looks the percentage call ahead of the potentially fairly treated Lake Wakatipu and Just Beware could also be involved. After not be disgraced behind the useful Elzahann last time out the selection has had two pounds taken off her back by the assessor. A more than capable conditional takes an extra three pounds off making her burden on the light side and she should take advantage. Based on her penultimate start Lake Wakatipu looks fairly treated on her debut in this sphere. What we can be sure of is that she is in good form having won a mare¿s only maiden last time out and with the assistance of a very promising pilot she looks likely to mount a challenge. Just Beware could get into the prize money at a bigger price having run well under today's pilot off this mark on her last start while Golden Run is on top form and should be considered after wins on her last two starts. It's competitive stuff to close out the card with Pure Genius looking the percentage call.
