Verdict

Verdict

FUTURE RED, one of four last-start maiden winners making their handicap debut, has improved since relocating to the Highveld. She opened her account against male opposition recently and should have more to offer in her peak outing against same-sex opposition. FLYING WORLD, BRIGHT COMET and XTATIC could be leniently treated off their opening handicap marks so warrant the utmost respect. Hard-knockers EIGHT HATS, PRETTY ANALIA and ON A JET PLANE can also make their presence felt.

Top Tip: Eight Hats (4)
Watch out for: Pretty Analia (3)
