NET WORTH (second) finished comfortably ahead of Dowsing Rod (third) and Remastered (fourth) here last month and is readily suggested as the one to be with here. Leavenworth is still unexposed and may be the one to give the selection the most to think about today, while Dream Of Gold also has to be feared.
Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 13l behind Swiped The Castle at 66-1 when last of 7 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f earlier this month. Hard to fancy.

JUST CALL ME AL has some respectable form to his name and rates the safest option this ordinary-looking maiden. Giacomo Casanova and Jonas Hill Road are both open to plenty of progression and are a couple of others to consider.
A winner at 4f. Beaten 16l behind Ritaan at 8-1 when 11th of 12 on her latest outing at Tampa Bay Downs over 5f in December last year. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Brian Lusk. Drops in class and in one to take notice of here.

This could be at the mercy of MIDNIGHT PASS, who posted a near-miss here last month and rates a solid contender over this trip. Luna West is noteworthy dropping in class, while Great Devotion is an old rival of the selection and is also dangerous to rule out.

PRINCESS MARGARET sets a clear standard and is expected to take full advantage of a contest that lacks any kind of depth on paper. Palacio and Cold Cash appeal most of the remainder.
