Summary

The speed is moderate in this event with #3 STUNNING MAIRE the likely leader from gate 1 while #11 GIRLS LIGHT UP & #8 CHANTARI BAT are also likely to press forward early. This should give #12 NIGELLA LANE an ideal spot just behind the speed in a stalking position with cover. While #4 TRIESTE is likely to get further back in the field as is her usual pattern.

Betting Strategy

Back (Each Way) - #12 NIGELLA LANE

She hasn’t had too much luck in her two starts to date. Getting back on the synthetic and then caught wide and working mid-race last start, she should really enjoy a much more economical run in behind the speed from gate 5. She has shown real tenacity to date and I think that will hold her in good stead here.
