Race preview
This is a below-par handicap but MS OLIVIA has upside potential. She started joint-favourite on her Dundalk debut last February and while well held, raced somewhat green and may have been unsuited by that 5f trip. Well held in two subsequent starts, her latest effort came on soft ground and, notably, she had earlier finished seven lengths ahead of today's rival Shahada Ace in April. The latter has improved since then but is certainly vulnerable to lesser-exposed types. Sugar Club was bought out of a claimer in June and had excuses last time.
