Race Overview
Consistent overall, VEGA OF SAINTS (10) posted a fine comeback run and can find herself in the fight for victory. Undefeated this year, IRLANDIA (3) has to carry a 4.50kg penalty for the latest win but remains a solid winning proposition. STORMY NIGHT (4) should strip fitter this time and is clearly not out of it. REVOLTEE (14) is on a very low handicap mark and can surprise.

10 - 3 - 4
