Came home last over Christmas in race won by Taxi To The Moon in a Grade 3; grade looks suitable; likely to be thereabouts now dropping in class and she has won in classy company before.

Verdict
A wide-open affair but preference is for MOUNT PINATUBO. He has shown in the past that he is able to get the job done and has won twice over this C&D. Little Ballerina has run well previously over this C&D.
Mount Pinatubo
