9/4

Good second of 7 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 7 days ago, staying on well having conceded first run. Worth a chance to go one better from a very appealing mark.

Age: 7| Weight: 8-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: D Shaw| OR: 58| CD

Forecasts

Perfect Rose (9/4), Thowq (7/2), Dubai Elegance (8/1), Quarry Beach (17/2), Lady Alavesa (12/1), Dancing Rave (12/1), Zafaranah (12/1), Penpal (12/1), Little Red Socks (14/1), Eponina (18/1)

Having dropped in the weights, PERFECT ROSE returned to form when narrowly denied over C&D a week ago, finishing well having not been so well placed as the winner. If this is truly run, she's capable of going one better, so she gets the nod ahead of Thowq, with Dancing Rave also considered.
