RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Both MEGA SPUR (11) and ALDEBARAN BROOKE (10) are race fit and have a class edge on most of these but face challenging second row draws. Both can figure in the finish. RUBYS DREAM (8) lightly raced mare resuming here but has shown plenty of ability. Needs luck from the draw but expect a big showing. PROMISE DREAM (7) is racing well and does have the advantage of the front line draw and is one of the main chances. FREMARKSTILLY (9) highly talented mare with her share of quirks but is right up to these. A major threat. ROMANTIC NINA (4) mixes her form but was impressive last start. Can’t be dismissed. AZALEA MAE (1) MAGIC LAW (2) BOUTIKA (3) CONSTANT (5) ALL THAT REMAINS (6) and BEACH HEAVEN (12) are first four hopes. EARLY SPEED: 2,4,7 RATINGS: 11/ 10/ 8/ 7/ 9/ 4/ 1/ 2/ 3/ 5/ 6/ 12
