In a highly-competitive Group 3, TASMANIA is narrowly preferred. Having already proved herself smart earlier in her career in France, she shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up on reappearance at Newcastle last month. Beechwood looks a huge threat if returning in the same form as when readily winning a listed race at Galway last September, while her stablemate One Look may well get back on track now upped in trip on a more suitable surface.
