In depth
Verdict
Libbretta was placed yet again on her latest start here and will probably be in the mix but Abel Tasman was beaten off today’s mark having won over a longer trip at the track earlier. Stormbomber may get involved back over today’s distance while Be Fair was beaten less than a length at Doncaster recently and Deleyll scored over track and trip in January. But AVORISK ET PERILS is another with claims as she finished runner-up over track and trip last time having also been drawn high when winning off today’s mark here last summer.
