Hollywoodbets-sponsored trainer Gavin Smith saddles Perfection in Race 2. He has won his last two starts with ease, the latest of which was the Listed East Cape Guineas on the polytrack.
He has won twice and finished second twice from five starts on this course. He is likely to have his own way in front once again and if seeing out the 2000m, he may be hard to peg back in the run down to the line.
Vihzoe’s Magic from the Lunga Gila stable takes her place in Race 5. She ran a fair race against stronger company over 1400m on this course last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked.
The manner in which she has finished off her recent efforts suggests that she will be suited to the mile. From her good draw of three, she can notch up her sixth career victory.
