In depth
Verdict
CASTANA DIA was third over course and distance on her debut last year. She ran twice on the all-weather after that but didn’t reproduce that effort but is is worth another chance back on Turf given her trainer’s record here. Million Reasons placed twice on the all-weather last year but is among the most exposed. Take Up Arms has strong claims if taking to this surface but Electric Love may be more progressive having found only one too good in both starts to date.
