Race Overview
With a large number of the field out of form, it could pay to side with a filly who has been shaping well this year without a win. VASIGREEN (7) ran a good race last time when fourth in early July and she has a good chance of scoring. Her main rival could be EVERSTORM (5) who has faired well in two runs this term. SECOND TO NONE (8) and SPEEDY ANGEL (3) head the remainder, with the latter having dropped to a decent handicap rating.
Selection:
7 - 5 - 8
