A stiff test of stamina for these two-year-olds and the likes of Monday Club, Judicial Enquiry and Scarpeta have already come up short over the trip. Lady President and Its A Sheila Thing filled the places in a plating race over track and trip recently but PIVOTAL DREAM makes more appeal on her earlier fourth over course and distance and she has subsequently gone close over a mile here. Carbutt's Ridge has tumbled down the weights and attempts this trip for the first time along with handicap debutant Beret.
