Verdict

CARAWAY couldn't get involved after meeting trouble on her handicap debut here last month, but she's bred to be suited by this trip so is well worth another chance for her leading yard. Forever Perfect has taken her form up a notch over this C&D on her last 3 starts and is respected, with Itsonlyrockandroll also considered.
