The unexposed daughter of Sea The Stars MUNIZA was impressive here last time and her opening handicap mark looks fair particularly with this extra distance expected to be even more to her liking. At the other end of the age scale Here For The Craic is attractively handicapped based on recent flat form and he is feared. Also entering calculations is Ringside Humour who on the pick of her form is very well treated.
