Strong pace with Messenger Of God, Smash 'N' Grab and Turfaction paving the way. SH'BOURNE RISING (9) has more upside than most and gets her chance to get off the mark. Two start maiden who has wound up strongly at each and hasn't been far from the winner. Extra trip looks ideal and should go close. THICKSKINNED (6) wasn't far away fresh then drifted back this course and distance last time but charged home late for a close-up fourth. Fitter and looks hard to hold out again. ARCADE BOY (1) had his first start here last time and raced off speed with cover but seemed bogged down on the inside and finished seventh. Was only beaten 2.5 lengths and with the claim again gets a chance to atone. LEO DAVINCI (2) has also placed both tries at the course and distance and looks a leading player. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sh'bourne Rising gets her chance.
