Verdict
Life's A Whirl can land this trappy affair from Sant Elena and Kaveri. Christine Dunnett's filly is making her handicap debut following three promising juvenile efforts. The pick of them was a close second to subsequent listed race winner Alavarita. A repeat of that effort should be good enough in this company. Sant Elena made a pleasing return to the track when third to handicap snip Easy Air and should improve for the run. Meanwhile Kaveri is trained by Clive Brittain who has made a bright start to the new campaign She was just a length behind Porters at Kempton last month and should make her presence felt this afternoon. In a wide open contest My Princess and Red Evie are also in with place claims, but if Life's A Whirl runs up to her best she will be hard to beat.
