Tonahutu should be thereabouts eased in grade but will find SUGARY to tough nut to crack. Martin Jones’ mare was below her best last time but she earlier beat Miss Flawless and Seaside Dancer over track and trip and had Tammy’s Window behind when they clashed at Del Mar last August. Clockstrikestwelve is held on collateral form but Meso could be interesting at a working man’s price if handling the switch back to Turf.
