Not the greatest of races and a couple of these are quite poor but the Alex Dunn debutante Marienstar is interesting with the tongue-tie back on and the yard can get one like this ready. Celestial Dancer drops in grade and needs respecting on that one hurdles run with Approaching Star given a chance based on her run in this last year. Overall though if she is ready to go QUEEN OF EPIRUS is given the vote with her handicap run last time being some of the best form on offer here as she drops in grade.
