Verdict
Kallista's Pride ran encouragingly last time and is taken to get the better of Ballybunion and Cayman Breeze. The selection has progressed well this season and lost no caste in defeat when a good second behind Holbeck Ghyll. She goes off the same mark again today and looks to have a leading chance. Ballybunion rates the main danger as he has won his last two races in good style. However, he is rising in the weights and this looks his toughest assignment to date. Caymen Breeze is another that has been in good form of late but he ran as if the handicapper had caught up with him last time and for that reason he is taken on. Kitchen Sink ran as if about to hit form when a good second behind Golban last time. He looks to be on a handy mark and could go well at a price from what looks to be a good draw. However, Kallista's Pride is in good heart at present and with that in mind she is difficult to oppose.
