|---|---|---|---|---|

The race pace here looks not too bad at all in this 3yo only event over 1400m. GERIATRIX (1) is a multiple class dropper here after racing well in last two runs at G2 and G3. Better drawn here. He is the one to beat here without any doubt. PARAGON (3) is a class riser but looks like he has come up well this time in. Loves wet ground too. Very competitive here indeed. ITZA CHARMDEEL (2) was not too bad a run fresh up. Has won second up too. Course proven. Each-way all day for sure. FASHION ICON (5) she has run well in both her runs this time in. Ace gate. Proven on dry and wet. OUR ABSOLUTE (8) has been much improved this time in. Handles dry and wet ground. Cannot be left out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Geriatrix is a win wager.
