Low-mileage mare; tapped for toe over 2m last time; return to 2m3f looks a plus

Ties in with Kamsinas; seems best when fresh; could go well on return from break
1	Goshen Bay J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	J:Niall Houlihan T:Gary & Josh Moore	168	—	44931-	141	144	121	316d	—	—	+33	35.6	8.25/1	33/1 3%
