Verdict

Artdeal and Alexander Monarchy are both previous winners and they can fight out the finish of this claimer, My Sheila's Dream may do best of the others. The selection landed a class five maiden here in April and hasn't been disgraced since. His recent effort behind the impressive Wigrams Turn reads well and a big run is expected. Alexander Monarchy was successful in this grade when beating the good yardstick Rio Taffeta. She was well beaten next time but the ground may have been too soft and this faster surface should suit her better. My Sheila's Dream won first time out but reared up at the start last time. If she behaves today she should get inviolved in the finish. The rest make little appeal and so we return to Artdeal as the likely winner.
