Cape gets the confident vote here with Angus Newz and Mango Music rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time despite finding trouble in running when beating Stanley Goodspeed zand although rising in the weights she again has conditions to suit and is taken to defy the handicaper. Angus Newz rates the main danger as she won well last time when beating Nidhaal but she will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Mango Music is another that could go well as she also won well last time but she is best when allowed to dominate and as that does not look likely she looks worth taking on. Of the remainder Perfect Story is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but she looks weighted up to her best and with this in mind for the winner we return to the progressive Cape.
