Incisor, Lady Stripes and Ask The Driver are three against the field in this handicap and the confident vote goes to Incsior. The selection won well last time out when defeating Queens Fantasy. He is one of the least exposed in the field and off what still looks a fair mark he will be hard to beat. Lady Stripes rates the main danger she has shown a enough ability in maidens to suggest she can win a race of this nature and comes into handicaps on a fair mark so she is worth a cautionary look in the market. Ask The Driver is another that could go well he was a fair fourth behind Ace Coming last time and a reproduction of that effort would give him definite place claims. Of the remainder Naferton Girl comes to handicaps on a fair mark and is another from a top yard that could go well but for the winner we return to Incsior.
