      In depth

      Verdict

      Dimaire has perhaps been unlucky not to get a win from fourteen runs so far but she may once again be playing for the minor honours as SHEER FORCE just gets the vote ahead of Superior Edge. The selection has won here on similar ground before under Shane Kelly and his experience in handicaps may put paid to the challenge of Superior Edge who has finished twice in her two runs here. Billy Cray claims 5lb on Liberty Lady which puts her at a more realistic and competitive weight.
