Verdict

This modest event may fall to IXELLES DIAMOND who has run creditably on each of her last two starts in similar company. How's Lucy went close over course and distance recently and has every chance if returning in similar form, and slow starters Cookie Ring and Dynamic Girl are not out of it if able to stay more or less in touch through the first half of the contest. Recent winner Secret Lightning is another worthy of respect but has never won two in a row before, but Dukes Meadow has a shout if in the mood.
  1. Ixelles Diamond
