Verdict
There are a few in here who ought to be able to win a handicap of this sort with Frosting and Hadeeqa amongst them. This trip will suit the latter better while the former might just have a little work to do off this mark. Cotinga may well need the handicapper to cut her a little slack but should make an impression but it's LYRIC HARMONY who could be a little bit of value herewith the step up in trip and ground looking to suit her as she goes in search of her first handicap win.
