Bahamian Bliss looks to be going the right way after three starts and could be of interest racing in a handicap for the first time but a better bet looks to be Mistress Cooper, who gets the vote over Flower. The last mentioned has shown steady improvement in her four starts this term and she has to be respected. Rae Guest's Lady Carollina is another that has only had the three starts and now races in a handicap for the first time, while Lake Sabina is going the right way and would go close given any further improvement. The vote though goes to Mistress Cooper, who showed gradual improvement last term and made an encouraging start to this season when a close third behind Overwing over course and distance. Entitled to come on for that run, Willie Musson's filly looks the one to beat.
