Expert Reply looks the likely leader in a race without much early pressure.
HAKWA was tracking well before the latest when she overraced in the early stages. Prepared to forgive that and she gets her chance over further finding a sit from the rail. GARIFULLINA also draws low and will be better for the three runs back. Can win this at best and should be ready to find it. DYDEE'S GIRL races as if the trip will suit and gets Lloyd first time. His latest effort was much better. ARAMIST also deserves consideration.
SUGGESTED PLAY: A moderate contest and Hakwa gets the nod.
