She should have to give a massive chunk of weight away - but even at level weights it will still VERY much be a race.
But - Level weights should even further discourage competition from entering a 250K Grade 1 that includes both of those horse. You're basically running for 3rd and a 25K check.
I'd expect no more than a field of 5 - I'd expect St Trinians to have the needed seperation while in a comfort zone and feel no pressure to move until Rosario wants to.
If Zenyatta gets even she's leaving - and if she's ahead you're dead - but she's struggled to beat absolutely pathetic competition when they've been capable of getting comfortable early seperation in easy-run races. St Trinians has clearly demonstrated for the third time in a row that she's a real horse.
