In depth
Verdict
Plenty of guesswork needed as regards the surface, but ABSOLUTE FUN makes her handicap debut after three starts on turf and gets a token vote. Vociferous has gone close on Polytrack since well beaten on her debut here, while Man Of My Word has also failed to figure in a couple of starts at this track. Manderston showed a bit more last time, while Singspiel Spirit and Blue Ridges may finish closer on their first start in a handicap.
