|---|---|---|---|---|

Genuine pace headed by Small Town Girl from her wide gate. CLEW BAY (1) has run well in both starts so far this time in. She was a dual trial winner prior. Bonus eligible in this field. Looks the winner in this. SMALL TOWN GIRL (3) wide draw but she led up at last start when running second. Sure to be let run again from the outset. Bonus eligible in this. Will give a sight. JOIN THE DANCE (2) big improvement at second start when runner up. She too is bonus eligible. Cannot be left out here. WITH GRACE (4) is well drawn here so is a trifecta and first four chance. Placed here two starts back when drawn the ace. Bonus eligible too. Cannot be omitted anywhere. VALIANT PRINCESS (8) was a fair debut effort. A place or the first four is possible. SUGGESTED PLAY: Clew Bay is the hardest here to beat. Small Town Girl looks to be the biggest threat.
