Small field in which My Mate Kate can find the front comfortably at a moderate tempo. AUTUMN DREAM (2) was a first-up winner last prep before holding her own in similar grade to this. Expected to aim up with two trials under her belt. CALYX ROSE (7) went bang-bang win-win prior to a spell. Two solid recent trials and a low draw make her a must-include. Veteran mare MON AMORE (12) likes it wet and is proven at this level. Wide play. LOUNERSE (1) drops back sharply in grade and looks well treated with the added aid of the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Autumn Dream.
