In depth

Verdict

Just a fairly low-grade affair with Suwaan sure to popular in the market but although he has some of the best form here his finishing efforts have looked a bit weak. Pavers Pride now has to cope with an inflated mark for a surprise maiden win at big odds and it remains to be seen how he copes with that. Rapid Ranger needs to show more and the two runners of interest here and potentially better than their marks are JEANY and Fintry Flyer . The former is given the nod due to her experience and return to turf but the latter could well show some more improvement on handicap debut.
