Apache Dream gets the narrow vote in a tigh contest for punters to call, with Rhyming Slang and Princess Valerina put forward to chase her home. The selection has shown promise on both of her runs to date and with the soft surface in her favour she gets the narrow vote. Rhyming Slang is a well-bred colt and the form of Jeremy Noseda's 2-year old's this season means that he should not be dismissed lightly. Princess Valerina is another interesting newcomer and as the yard is in good form she is worth considering, although she is bred to do better over further in time. Vadinka ran well last time but has had plenty of chances and we will stick with Apache Dream to lead them home.
