Black Moma is narrowly preferred here to Final Dynasty and Roheryn. The selection has been running well in this grade and still remains fairly-treated. She was a decent second last time out behind Cosmpolitan Lady and from a good draw she should take plenty of beating today. Final Dynasty is the obvious danger and she won well last time when beating Bookiesindex Boy. She is well-regarded and the form of her previous run behind Lady Lily has worked out well so she has to be respected. Irish raider Roheryn made a winning debut at Pontefract and she gave the impression that day that there might be more to come. She is one to note in the market. Mambo Spirit is well drawn and is another to consider, but for the winner we are happy to stick with Black Moma.
