Olivia Maylam deserves plenty of credit for her handling of LLAMADAS. Off the track for over five years, the veteran has won three times since returning in December, with two of those victories coming at this track. He's also beaten most of today's field at some point with Ordensritter his latest victim and The Absent Mare, Dr Finley, Native Colony along with the inconsistent Honourable Knight beaten here in January. Ordensritter and The Absent Mare both went close to catching him and could prove the biggest dangers once again, unless course and distance winner Where's Susie rediscovers her best.
