Verdict

Limini is 'well-in' here having gone close on Monday over a longer trip (second) on her first start in more than 500 days. She should handle this drop in trip and should go close again if that return hasn't left a mark. Her price reflects that however and she looks short enough as such. Mawaany was second in this 12 months ago and comes back in rude health following a narrow loss last time while the consistent Gustavus Vassa cannot be dismissed despite climbing the ratings without winning. PRINCESS YAIZA has shown her best form on better ground but, if things dry out, she has been running well in Listed races lately and might be worth a chance in handicap company.
  1. Princess Yaiza
  2. Limini
  3. Mawaany
