Krystallite and Shine Likeadiamond share the same handicap rating. They set the standard on these terms but both have had plenty of chances and continue to come up short. Manipura has nearly three lengths to find with Krystallite on latest running while Aguerooo has a tough task at the weights so a speculative vote goes to K'GARI SPIRIT. Jeremy Gask's filly is out of a winning sprinter related to all-weather winner Lujeanie and preferred to fellow newcomer Turlove.
