Sharaby has a limited time to race before she is packed off to Australia to become part of her owner's breeding operation and is fancied to go out with a bang; possibly with the most to fear from Mugeba and Princess Galadriel. The last named handles this course well and comes here in good heart after a series of near misses. The Magic Ring filly has solid each-way claims in this company. As does Mugeba, who was successful here on her penultimate start. Gay Kelleway's charge is has crept up the weights but will still be a potent force if she puts her mind to it this afternoon. Pintle is another worth a mention, as she has some useful form to her name from around this time last year. However, her last few starts have left a little to be desired and she looks up against it from top weight even though this is a significant ease in grade for her. Even so, more reliable option comes in the shape of Sharaby. This half-sister to Mystic Man is a tough and consistent performer that has already paid her way in win and place money. A mark of 68 is far from restricting and Sharaby need only run to the level of her recent form to round off her racing career with a win.
