MINHAAJ hasn't won a race for two years, but her mark reflects that and she has as good a chance as any judged on recent evidence, not least her respectable C&D effort last time. The veteran Doc Sportello will be a big threat if able to shrug off a low-key effort here recently, which is a distinct possibility given that his record here is otherwise solid. Global Acclamation is also accorded respect.
