Dandy's Hurricane and Cooperstown both displayed plenty of ability on their debuts, but we will side with an interesting newcomer Miss Provence, Amwaal is also expected to go well. Geoff Wragg's filly has a top class pedigree being by Hernando out of a very smart mare Miss Beaulieu. Making her a full sister to to two smart performers Miss Cornish and Miss Riviera. The last named was successful on her debut and Miss Provence can follow in her sibling's footsteps. Cooperstown was just behind the 78 rated My Arch when they filled the places behind a Barry Hills hotpot here in August. He should improve for the outing and looks a major threat. Amwaal has shown little in two runs this campaign but has strong claims on last season's form. Dandy's Hurricane wasn't given a hard time on his debut and should progress, but we return to the debutante Miss Provence for our likely winner.
