Java House

J: S Sosibo ⁹

T: M/a Azzie

You have to go back a long way to find her only win; nothing wrong with her last effort, third, beaten just over 1l, here (7f) two weeks ago; edging up the ratings; she takes on the boys here; if stepping up from most recent effort hard to ignore

DOUBLE MAGIC is a firm tip. He can be forgiven a poor run. Written In Stone isn't out of it while Java House is beginning to look exposed, and Kotinos is a major threat.
