Finsceal Go Deo has form that could probably win this but she's now had 16 starts without winning. LOCAL GIRL couldn't quite get past Pier Pressure over 7f last time but the winner came out and won a better race so the form looks strong enough for this. It's a year since Sailor's Warning made a promising debut here so something must have gone amiss while Concluding Call was staying on over the extended 1m2f a fortnight ago so dropping back doesn't look ideal though she should again take care of Sarah Purser. Nituna has some good form on Turf and makes her debut on the surface while Swan Band just ran out of steam over a mile a month ago and looks certain to improve.
