Caused a surprise in handicap four weeks ago upped to this distance; loves this track (three course wins) and bidding for a four-timer; now competes off a higher mark; more on her plate this time but has to be taken seriously.

Verdict

This should be a competitive affair. Course specialist Todoque will be in the thick of things while Nkwenkwezi looks a big threat. However, this is a suitable opportunity for ARTIC SILVER. She is bidding to land a fourth success at this course and although behind some of these latest, is taken to overturn those placings.
