R ace Summary

With ground conditions looking set to be ideal, it is entirely feasible that LOVELY BREEZE can avenge a narrow defeat at the hands of Spanish Star in last year's renewal of this race. Hugo Palmer's filly already has two C&D wins to her name and William Buick, who was in the saddle for one of those comfortable successes, is booked once again. Lihou creeps in at the foot of the weights and also merits respect. Win: LOVELY BREEZE Danger: Spanish Star
