Expecting Loken to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. ANDI DON'T CARE (7) resumes here but the form she showed when last in work was good enough for a race of this nature. Respect the reliable Gollan/Lang combination. CUSTO (6) has placed three of four this campaign and has to be included in calculations. LOKEN (10) should roll forward and is expected to show good improvement second up. MARTY MCFLY (2) a big watch fresh in his return with the added aid of the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Andi Don't Care.
