Moderate tempo with Limbering leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. RIGHT OF VETO (6) is ready to strike now after succumbing late here when resuming off 312 days, then closing strongly into the placings as favourite last start. Peaking third-up and drawn to get every favour. MAGIC PRINCESS (8) comes through some hot form races and drops back to a preferred trip. She maps to blend in beautifully and looms as a significant threat. HYSTERICAL LADY (5) lacks tactical speed but owns a sharp turn of foot on her day. Boasts a strong record here and will be dangerous late if the tempo is genuine. BIG MAV (4) has been hitting the line well and gets some weight relief. He’ll likely drift back from the draw but is far from hopeless. LIMBERING (10) looks the logical leader and will take running down if left alone in front. SUGGESTED PLAY: Right Of Veto to win.
