Given a weight for age allowance INTERDIAMONDS looks to have terms firmly in her favour in this handicap and as such has our confidence in preference to Birkside and Classic Contours. The Mark Johnston trained selection found just an inform runner too good off this mark last time when running against her our age group. Given her age reprieve here she looks very much well in and she is proven in these conditions. Birkside is potentially well weighted on his return to these ranks. Amanda Perrat¿s runner scored in a claimer last time which confirms his well being. Classic Contours likes this ground and also has terms in his favour getting an age allowance. He's been running well in defeat and has no stamina concerns. Summer Soul is rated at just a pound above his last winning mark so as to be respected however with ground not ideal for that one Interdiamonds is preferred.
