Lucky Valentine gets the confident vote with Cargo and Stagecoach Ruby rating the main dangers. The selection was a good third behind Tender in a much better race last time out. This easier track will suit and with conditions in her favour she is impossible to oppose. Cargo rates the main danger on his latest second behind Majhool but that was over seven furlongs and he may not have enough toe for the minimum trip here and for that reason he is opposed. Stagecoach Ruby is another worthy of respect on her best form but she is another who's form is better over a longer trip and for that reason is passed over here. Of the remainder Rileys Dream ran as if returning to form last time but his best efforts have come with much more cut in the ground and for the winner we return to Lucky Valentine .
