A small turnout and DONTUWISHITWERESO is our pick with Princess Charlmane and Love In The Park as the others of note. A big price on debut, a big performance was put up by Paul D'Arcy's charge and with course form at a premium, he secures the recommendation. Princess Charlmane is 0 from 16 thus far. In fairness to her, her latest effort was her best for sometime but it would be disappointing were something not to improve past her. Love In The Park is a half sister to a seven furlong winner and one would imagine that the paddocks await for this daughter of Pivotal. Ice Attack had two inauspicious starts in Ireland but this is such a poor race that she cannot be discounted. Minibuzz has beaten just one horse home in three starts thus far. It doesn't get any worse than this and Dontuwishitwereso is the pick.
Love In The Park Pivotal filly, half-sister to winning miler Behaving Naughty and 7f winner Grand Lucre.
