LAURA'S LADY gets the vote in this handicap over Dean Iarracht and Where's Reiley. The selection is making her handicap debut here but she won her maiden in good style on her racecourse debut over this course and distance and she looks like one to stay on the right side of from a good draw. Dean Iarracht hails from a yard in good form and he ran well on his return from a break at Newcastle last time. He should strip fitter for that but his draw in stall one does count against him. Where's Reiley has a decent draw but he was disappointing at Hamilton last time and he will need to leave that running behind if he is to get competitive today.Just Timmy Marcus has looked progressive and he can prove best of the others. But Laura's Lady makes most appeal and she gets the vote.
