In a race lacking in quality but certainly not competitiveness,
KINGS HEART is taken to defy top-weight. He went relatively close to winning over this C&D last year, and now carries much less weight both thanks to the handicapper and an apprentice jockey. With a relatively weak pace likely, if he is ridden prominently he could steal a lead on the field and secure a second career win. Most of the field are still looking for their first, including
My Girl Maisie, who has already shown a liking for this surface, and
Paquita Bailarina, who ran very well two starts ago before disappointing last time out.
