Race preview
In customary fashion, Bird For Life was slowly into stride on her latest outing, so it's to her credit that she was still able to get up. The eight-year-old can't afford to do that around here, however, and with that in mind a chance is taken on ZYRA'S LIONESS. Sheena West's charge displayed improved form when a good third on her first run following wind surgery and she may well take another step forward. Hidden Pearl heads the remainder.
