The experienced horses look nothing special and so we will take a chance with the debutante Cha Cha Cha, Abadia and Support Fund could provide most danger. Kevin Ryan has his tean in top form and Cha Cha Cha, a well bred daughter of Efisio looks the part on paper. The dam, a daughter of Rambo Dancer, was successful over a mile as a three-year-old and so this tough six furlongs should be okay for her first outing. Abadia is sprint bred being a daughter of Bahamian Bounty and any market move for James Given's filly should be heeded. Support Fund showed plenty of promise in two outings as a juvenile and could be the one to take advantage if the newcomers are not race fit. The market will be a major guide here but without that knowledge we will side with Cha Cha Cha.
