A low grade sprint handicap which in truth makes no appeal whatsoever, so stakes are clearly best kept to a minimum. MY GIRL MAISIE could have held a better draw, but has shown enough on Tapeta recently to suggest that she's at least upto winning a race at some point, and therefore gets the vote as a result.
