In a small field either Thankful Heart or Spice Baby will find the front. Small field but tough race. CONFESS OUR DREAMS (1) has been over a year since a win but this is the easiest assignment for quite some time. Drawn for a good run with cover and aided by the claim. Gets chance to find form. SMILING PROPHET (5) is a lightly raced mare who resumed off a long break with a barnstorming win. Fitter again and poor 1200m record is better than it reads. Goes very well here and will be running on hard again. SPICE BABY (8) has the most upside being a three-start filly yet to miss the frame including a debut win. Goes very well for Day and with good speed will take catching. HELLISH (2) just missed fresh then had little go right latest in far richer company. Goes well third-up and worth another chance. PUERTO BANUS (4) was disappointing in town latest and did win only try course and distance. Can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Confess Our Dreams can atone.
