Towards the rear of 13 (Vaal) dropped down to this trip off higher mark two weeks ago; this only her second start in handicap company; in with a shout now dropping in class and has proved she knows how to win.

Verdict
A tight affair on the figures. Clouds Clearing is one to consider while Last Ginger is one that needs plenty of respect. However, MATTIAZO looks the most likely winner here. She has shown a liking for this course and distance and has proved she can get her head in front.
