Latin Queen gets the confident vote with Didn't You Know and Theocritus rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second in a better race behind Miami Explorer last time out and although she is giving weight to all her rivals she is well clear on official BHB figures and need only run up to that mark to score. Didn't You Know rates the main danger as he has shown a modicum of ability in three runs to date. However he pulls very hard and has failed to see out the trip so he is passed over on this occasion. Theocritus is another that has hinted at ability and is from a yard in form so should be noted in the market but his overall form leaves him with plenty to find. The remainder have shown very little and are readily opposed and for the winner we return to Latin Queen.
