Oh So Saucy runs this track well and her recent defeat looks strong with the winner scoring since, and Chris Wall's filly gets the vote over recent winner Choreography. The selection is progressive and seems to have flourished as a four-year-old. Beaten by Ispahan last time, she ran well in defeat and whilst she may ideally want a drop of rain, a big run still looks on the cards. Choreography won well last time and seems to have been rejuvenated by his new stable; he loves the ground like a road and won't be far away. Applesnap is a rare Christine Dunnett horse not to wear some sort of headgear but she needs to forget her last run now stepped up in trip. Ike Quebec's recent form has been below par, so a bigger danger may be Hazytoo; however he is yet to win on the turf, much like the older Wodhill Schnapps. Christine Dunnett throws another couple of darts with Registrar and Djalalabad; however it is Oh So Saucy who can give us a thrill.
