Verdict

Quite a competitive heat. Amor Fati is an interesting contender from the ideal draw while the otherwise interesting Isivivane has a stamina query to answer at this trip. However, the suggestion is GIMMEFABULOUS. She has been running to a consistent level lately and has rewarded supporters in the past.
