VELOCIOUS (5) is proven fresh up. Three times trialled for two wins and a fourth so she is very ready to resume. Multiple class dropper. Huge chance here at 55kg. EGYPTIAN QUEEN (6) is a multiple-class riser in this. Course placed. Quinella and trifecta chance in this field. MISS BO PEEP (8) has been racing well for a while. She has won on dry and wet ground and drops to 53kg here. LHASA (1) won fresh up in narrowly in this grade. Has won three from three second up tellingly. Dry tracker in general. Chance with conditions to suit today. MARTELL (2) is a dual winner fresh up. Wet tracker. Trial fourth earlier this month. Not totally out of this at all.
