ISHIGATI (NAP) makes her handicap debut and looks on a winnable mark. Her latest third behind Highly Approved, with Tagle behind, has been greatly boosted by the winner, who has completed a hat-trick. Iron Blue is another having her first handicap start and though she's shown potential this is a big ask on her return and her debut on the surface. Turnkey looks the type to do better in his second campaign but most of the remainder look held by the selection on a line through the prolific Highly Approved.
