Verdict
Coral Sea comes out best of those with a handicap mark as she makes her all-weather debut. She’s been placed in all five starts on Turf and should have the measure of both Speed Freak and De Vegas Kid. Absolutely Awesome, Tivra and Lily Fontana are likely improvers but a chance is taken on the newcomer WISHING TIME. A Frankel filly out of a Group 3 winner, David O’Meara’s charge may well have enough natural speed to land this.
