R ace Summary

A select but really competitive handicap to solve and it is easy to see why WICKYWICKYWHEELS will prove popular given she's on a steep upwards trajectory and goes on any ground. Viola finished fifth in a Group 2 here last time out and is noted running in a handicap for the first time since January, while Strawberri represents an in-form yard and is entitled to get closer to Wickywickywheels now she's 4lb better off at the weights for a one-and-a-half-length defeat last time. Win: WICKYWICKYWHEELS Danger: Strawberri
