The betting suggested TALLULAH MYLA would go close here last month and she duly beat the re-opposing Cinque Verde. Stuart Williams’ filly can go in again. Murbih wasn’t at his best last time but has the past form here while Wakai Umi has yet to reproduce last year’s form at the track when scoring off a higher mark. The Defiant is also back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best.
