    Verdict

    Rosapenna,Agilete and Dixieanna are three against the field in a tight handicap and the nomination is given to Agilete. The selection was a fair third behind Bold Cheverak last time out and with this slightly longer trip sure to suit he looks the one to be on. Rosapenna rates the main danger on her best form but she gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with her when fourth behind Cree last time and at likely odds she looks worth taking on. Dixieanna is another with place claims on her best form but she disappointed behind Alghab last time so can not be put forward with any confidence. Special Lad won well last time out when beating Danger Zone but he is not sure to be suited by the drop in trip. Of the remainder Cesar Manrique will need to improve for first time blinkers to score and for the winner we return to Agilete.
