Tacid,At The Helm and Burton Ash are three against the field in this trappy handicap and the vote is given to Tacid. The selection was a fair third behind Vancouver Gold last time out. That form has since been franked and off the same mark here she looks the value bet in an open affair. At The Helm rates the main danger on her latest fourth behind Ballare especially as the drop in trip is sure to suit. Burton Ash is another that could go well as she was a fair fourth behind Webbow last time but she looks to have enough weight for what she has actually archived. Of the remainder Taminoula is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but is hard to win with and in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Tacid.
