A wide open fillies handicap here and many can be given chances on their best form but the principals look to be Joyeaux, Tartatartufata, Angelofthenorth and Ashes and the tentative vote is given to Joyeaux. The selection won well last time out when beating Tartatartufata and although that rival is better off at the weights here she won with plenty in hand and she is taken to win again under her optimum conditions. Angelofthenorth rates the main danger she also won well last time out when beating Ashes but that rival is weighted to gain her revenge here and for that reason she is passed over. Cerebus is another with place claims but even on these revised terms with Tartatartufata she has a little to find. Of the remainder Auwitesweetheart was a fair second behind Tapa last time and remains on a fair mark so is another with definite place claims but in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Joyeaux.
