Baltic Belle is given the vote here over Belvedere Vixen and Musical Beat. The selection has had nine attempts to lose her maiden tag but she is a model of consistency and she did nothing wrong last time when headed close home by Benllech. Belvedere Vixen was a fair second behind Redcliff at Brighton when last seen out in August. She tackles the all-weather for the first time today and she looks a leading contender if she takes to the surface. Musical Beat has run well on both of her starts to date and she looks a banker to claim some place money. Best Option is an interesting newcomer and is worth noting in the market, but Baltic Belle deserves another chance and she gets our vote.
