Verdict

Despite the large field this can be whittled down to 3 chief protagonists, namely SOCIETY SOLDIER, Alentejo and Woodland Park, in that order of preference. The cases for the trio in question are all compelling but from a potential standpoint Society Soldier is the clear pick. Indeed, it was a decent mares novice that she won with plenty of authority here last time and she should have plenty more to offer now pitched into a handicap over a trip that promises to be right up her street.
