This is another open race in which Brazilian Terrace, Artistry, Flowerdrum and Solar Power all form part of the shortlist, and we will give the nomination to Brazilian Terrace. The selection is a course and distance winner who has been in decent form on the all-weather over the winter. She loves it around here with two of her three wins having come on this track, and as she is drawn well in stall 8 she looks capable of running a big race at attractive odds. Flowerdrum had a fantastic campaign last season and will certainly enjoy this ground more than he did at Newcastle last time when the going was heavy and he was well beaten. Artistry won well for new connections last time at Lingfield when defeating Michelle Ma Belle, but that was over 7 furlongs and she may not be quite as effective over this longer trip. Solar Power is the other worth a serious look as she shaped nicely on her debut last year when defeating Garryurra over 7 furlongs at Kempton. If the market speaks in her favour it may pay to take the hint, but Brazilian Terrace always runs her race on this track and she looks capable of making another bold bid to score.
