Verdict
MISS MACNAMARA was winning for the second time over course and distance when successful here last time. Eased down to win by over three lengths, Martin Todhunter's mare can go in again in her current mood. Summerlea was beaten only a nose by Jan Smuts at Newcastle during the week when running from out of the weights. He'll go close from off his proper mark today while Cool Baranca should also figure after a better effort at Ayr. Carlanda and Lacey have placed form on the all-weather to recommend them.
