Ever Charm, Tiffanee and Phantom Dragon to take up the running at a strong tempo. MONDAY MELODY (2) won his Maiden here. He handles all types of footing. Looks the best horse here by a margin and impossible to find a negative. Winner in this. ASTORIA BROOKE (10) has a wide gate but ran a better race at her last start. Definite danger in this field. Quinella and trifecta must here. DAJIEDA (11) has been twice trialled and won the latest of them. Threat in this from a wide draw and all. EVER CHARM (1) has been placed in two of three runs here. Class dropper today. Has won on dry and wet so include everywhere. PHANTOM DRAGON (17) is a class dropper in this. Well drawn once again. Won his Maiden right here. Chance for your combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Monday Melody on top.
