Verdict

This race appears to revolve around Inaminute, Angelina Bankes and She's The Whisper, with the vote going to She Whispers. Inaminute's last two runs have produced a win in selling company and a claiming-race second, and her mark of 55 is fully justified, something that is good enough to play a part in today's proceedings. Angelina Bankes' best form, which has come at today's trip, is comparable with that and she rates a major player too. However, working on literal formlines using Ten Shun as the gauge, then She Whispers is entitled to beat Inaminute, and you can build a case for her getting the better of Angelina Bankes too, although that latter form line is based on eight-and-a-half furlong form here, for which she is four pounds better off for a length-and-three-quarters. Furthermore, Tafilah is six pounds better off for the three lengths that she finished behind Inaminute at Southwell over seven furlongs on January 26th. You follow? Finally, Glenargo is interesting in the sense that he represents Puerto Rican bloodlines; however, we will stick with the formlines referred to and side with She Whispers back at today's shorter trip.
