The vote goes to PRAYING MANTIS, who improved for the switch to this surface when third in a 1m handicap won by the in-form Jackmel last week. She's is appealing off a 2 lb lower mark with Kevin Manning again in the hot-seat. Linus Larrabee is 0-11 but has found just one too good on 2 of his last 3 starts and he is feared, along with the first-time blinkered Sassy Dancer and Porterinthejungle.
