In depth
Verdict
Highly competitive stuff for the penultimate race of the card. Cayman Expresso is an interesting runner now that she is stepped back up to six. She did not disgrace himself at the trip last season and could be well handicapped horse on a literal interpretation of that form. Pearly Brooks ran well on her bow for her new trainer but disappointed next time out. She has ability but the draw could be better. A sprint wouldn't be the same without Milton Bradley's presence but Mamma's FC and Sharoura would need to step up on recent form to land this contest. Highland Flame appears suited to any ground and whilst the fact that she tends to pull hard is a severe negative, she has a very able rider on board in Martin Dwyer and is tentatively given the Teamtalk nod for this race. Prima Stella, if returning to her best, could go well at big odds.
