FONGOLI is the form horse in this juvenile race and gets the vote ahead of Takelli and Olofi. The selection was only moderate on the level but has shown improved form since connections have put a hurdle in front of her. She landed back to back races at Stratford and Newton Abbot during the summer and was not discredited after finishing third last time out. She has the best form on offer and is sure to go close. Takelli improved for the application of cheek pieces after winning at Stratford last time out. Evan Williams has his team of horses in great form of late so any market moves should be noted. Olofi finished fifth of ten on his debut and should have benefitted for the experience so is another to note. Fongoli should take all the beating and her only danger could come form an unexposed newcomer.
