Winner Of Kowloon should spear straight to the front of the small field. WINNER OF KOWLOON (1) has fought on well in two city maidens and finds a nice drop in class. Drawn to advantage and rates hardest to beat. CUBAN RAIN (6) couldn’t catch a friendly draw last campaign and this is an easier assignment. Set to improve. CUESTA (2) lacked fitness first up coming off a long break. Poorly drawn but should offer more resistance. QUILL AMBITION (4) will take natural improvement from her debut run and rises in trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Winner of Kowloon straight out.
