A woeful race to be getting heavily involved with and even the best of staking plans will be put to a stern test here with this bunch. Dunn Deal makes obvious appeal under the champion jockey and has to be placed on the short list. But Minirina has some fair form to her name at this level and she may just be the value selection in the race. Minirina holds Wittily on recent form and can be confidently expected to keep that rival at bay. Querida Rose is another moderate sort who is capable of stealing a place, but Minirina looks to be the best hope of overturning Dunn Deal and Kieren Fallon.
