Verdict
WAIKIKI WAVES is fancied to defy top weight in a weak-looking opener. Gary Moore’s charge is the only course winner in the line-up and was staying on here last month. He still has his stamina to prove over this trip but is preferred to Uttoxeter third Downloadtheapp, going beyond 2m4f for the first time. Gold Bonne Raine often travels strongly in her races but finds little at the business end and is now 0-13.
