Verdict

IOWNA BENZ (1) has been denied narrowly in her last two but is set to peak fourth-up over a trip she relishes. Draws well for JVO again and can go one better. HEAVENLY KISS (4) never looked likely last time at Rosehill when always well back - willing to forgive. Her win here the start prior measures up nicely and the low draw should see her closer to the action. Can bounce back sharply. FULLY CALCULATED (2) hasn't won for nearly a year but is knocking on the door. Goes well over this journey and can be kept safe. Impossible to ignore the form of JUDITH'S REVENGE (9), who shoots for the hat-trick here. Drops back to the 5f off 45 days in-between and is drawn to get ideally. Have to take seriously.
