Handicap debutante WILDE SPIRIT makes plenty of appeal and could take the beating if she can take a further step forward now she contests a race of this nature; Tierra Verde likes this course and is rated as a big danger, while Oriental Flame can also make the rest aware of her presence if she settles and saves a little more in reserve for a finishing kick this time. Queen Adelaide represents a top yard and is another to monitor in the betting.
