Fortunate Vision drops in class but is penalised for a couple of earlier wins and is conceding weight to LADY ALAVESA. The latter has placed in handicaps on several occasions and may well take advantage of today’s favourable terms. Slipstream and Super Major have both won races this year though the latter should have done better in a similar plating contest here last time while Watch Tan and Red Snapper are regularly in the mix but have it all to do at the weights.
