A much lower standard than the first division and a race that could be ripe for an upset. TREASURED COMPANY is the least exposed so gets a tentative vote after a couple of fair runs in novice company. Kalinda got off the mark over a half-mile further here last time but wouldn’t want any rain. Scotsbrook Night can’t get much lower in the weights and may be best of the rest.
