LA CASONA (3) went fast early and went on to score by 0.8 lengths last time out over 7f at Sandown-Hillside. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot salute. CORONATION KEITH (2) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when seventh over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside after he was in the firing line on the bend. HAZEL BABY (1) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 4 lengths when eighth in a 6½f contest at Sandown-Hillside three weeks ago. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HOT PURSUIT (16) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when fifth over 7f at Sandown-Hillside, beaten 2.5 lengths. Expect a better run this time.
