Forecasts

Gaia Vallis (5/6), Barra Blue (11/8), Near Dark (16/1), Porridge (20/1), Dreaming Diamond (20/1)

BARRA BLUE has shown minimal promise over hurdles to date but she's up in trip for handicap debut and, based on her hurdling debut, she's potentially thrown in off a mark of 85. She's preferred to the in-form but more exposed Gaia Vallis, while Near Dark is another one to note having her first go in handicaps.
