Forecasts

Kupatana (1/1), Little Miss Poet (2/1), Brillare Momento (11/4)

LITTLE MISS POET receives weight from her main rival Kupatana and that can be enough to see her register a first victory over fences in this small field mares event. The selection showed promise when placed last time out and can get the better of her penalised rival with Brillare Momento taken to finish third of the trio.
