Verdict

Those with experience make little appeal though the returning Magic Destiny looks the best of them on last year's placed efforts over 6f at this track. That leaves the two newcomers and Light From Hades can count soft ground winner Slugger O'Toole among her five winning relatives. Any strong support for her in the betting could prove significant, but EMILY CARR is also a half-sister to a couple of winners and Mark Johnston's Teofilo filly won't have to be anything special to land this on her introduction.
