Cantabria and Squaw Dance stand out on ratings with our vote going to Cantabria; best of the rest might prove to be Sweet Treat. Group 3 placings in each of her last two races make Cantabria the one to beat here. Simple as that. Squaw Dance is genuinely Listed class and, very consistent, she looks good for some money again. Little Miss Gracie is held by Squaw Dance based on Hamilton form, but Sweet Treat rates as interesting based on her autumn form and the best of her spring efforts. She also comes here fresh, which is not necessarily a downside. The others have something to prove on these terms which, in turn, returns us to a solid selection, Cantabria.
