Bukzel, Mollyfied and Silent Image press forward with Calabasas handy. Another very competitive contest and look to Mollified and Vega for on pace motives from wide draws. CALABASAS resumes after a promising campaign last time in where he took on open class with mixed success. Drops back to class one level and coming off two trial wins looks primed for a first up tilt. VEGA responded to a market push with a strong win first up then battled away behind a subsequent city winner in Hussterical last start. Up in trip third up can hit back hard here. ARGENTINA has been entered and scratched a few times of late prior to this run. Needs a firm track to show his best but did go on to run well in some handy races after his maiden win last campaign. Respect off two quiet trials. Mollyfied scored a deserved maiden win last start but is drawn deep this time whilst Laszlo could measure to stronger this campaign. and shapes as the main danger with Penza to ride. ARGENTINA next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Calabasas for the win.
