Verdict

CALATHINITE (1) found one marginally better when fresh from a break last start over 6f at this track after being prominent throughout. Can spear over from a wide draw. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. CHANTILLY GIRL (6) scored her maiden win here last time out over today's trip, getting the decision by 1.2 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Shaping up nicely and she should be in the finish again. OUR SHILLAYLEIGH (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when eighth over 6 ½f at Northam. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. COCOON GIRL (9) was second-up from a break and having her first try on a dirt track when 6 lengths back in sixth at this track over 6f. Solid each-way claims. HELL'S CITI (3) can win again.
