Verdict

Kirkby's Treasure, a course and distance selling winner last time, has been left unchanged by the handicapper and has to be respected but this looks tougher for Alan Swinbank's gelding and a better bet looks to be Green Pirate, who gets the vote ahead of Mystical Ayr. The last mentioned was good value for her win at Ayr last week and has to be respected despite the 6lb penalty but Linda Perratt's mare would probably prefer some cut in the ground and is probably best left out of calculations unless the rain arrives. Sarraaf has slipped to a winning mark but is hard to back on recent evidence, while Drink To Me Only is another that would probably want a softer surface. Redwood Rocks has only had two starts this term and could be of interest but preference is for Mark Brisbourne's Green Pirate who has been running creditably on the all-weather of late and returns to turf on a decent mark.
