Verdict
Florida Filly carries a double penalty for earlier wins at Hamilton while Radio Goo Goo is creeping closer but has had plenty of chances. Canadian Fire gave the impression this shorter trip would suit when fourth at Ripon but that comment also applies to DAKOTA ELEGANCE. The latter led for most of the way over 6f at Kempton last week and makes more appeal than Sabah Al Ward, who should improve on a debut fourth at Lingfield last month.
