Verdict
Lady Orchid should have the measure of She's Shiney and several of the others once again but has drawn wide today along with Fiddlers Tsunami. A high draw was no problem for the latter when winning an allowance race here in March though she was beaten by THREE CHORDS in a stakes race at Remington last autumn with Spring Steen further behind. Kenny Smith’s mare was less than a length behind the winner in a more valuable contest than this at Oaklawn last time and looks the one to side with on that form.
