Verdict
Course and distance winner Westgate Run, looks the one to be on. Without a win for nearly two years, she has tumbled in the weights and the return to this trip is also in her favour, although she would not want the ground on the easy side. Tackling handicappers for the first time Sly Baby, doesn't look harshly treated and will be hard to keep out of the frame, while the three-year-old River Reine, from a yard in much better form now, is another who is not without a chance.
