Verdict

Only a head separated winner Pips Tune and The Bay Warrior over track and trip at the start of the month. The latter re-opposes on more favourable terms while the former has subsequently finished ahead of No Such Luck when fourth back at this track. Decoding may well improve now handicapping but MOHASSANA will find this easier than her handicap debut in Class 4 company here last time and is taken to go close in this lowly grade.
