Plenty of promising form is brought to the table in the finale, but a chance can be taken with GOODNIGHT GIRL, who remains unexposed on these shores. Her run after a long lay-off was very taking over 6f behind Nordic Passage, and the drop to this trip may help her case even more given she's weighted to go better than that rival again, who has place claims in himself. Boughtinthedark and Tide Of Time have been in flying form this season and it will be interesting if they can escape the vice of the handicapper in this, while the likes of Dash D'or, Master Matt and Infection Point are on the opposite and being given a chance in the weights for some encouraging efforts last time out.
