Though a maiden on Turf, STARRY EYES wasn’t beaten far in a handicap at Windsor at the start of the month and is the one to beat in this low-grade contest on that effort. Latent Heat and Send In The Clouds give Tony Carroll a strong hand while any market interest in Ceilidh King or Johnny Murtagh’s Kirikiriroa would be significant.
