Tough. LILY LUELLA (12) resumed much improved winning the CL1 here over this distance. He has won second-up and benefits from a 4lbs claim. She can race handy and looks capable of taking the next step. CAPITAL CHEVAL (5) is third-up and has gone close both starts this preparation. Rates well but is going to need luck from the cruel gate. FREAK ON A LEAD (1) is a leader who's been lipped out his last two in tougher class. The 9lbs claim takes care of some of the weight lift and he can skip across and give a sight. PRINCESS MATOAKA (10) maps for a soft run in easier and is in the mix as well.
